The choices we have these days are endless one hapless politican or another, die in a car crash or of some tropical disease? Well quite frankly I'm very much considering the former option as having been innoculated for everything from hepititus to yellow fever the subject of malaria risen its very ugly head!!

It would seem that the options are endless when it comes to malaria drugs too and non of them appeal quite frankly, you pay a ridiculas amount for the most modern drugs which still promise likely side-effects of headaches and nausia, whilst the older cheaper drugs include enhanced sun-burn which for those of you who know me could prove slightly problematic, hair loss and hallucinations!

What makes this decision even more delightful is that the Brazilian government (not really the science leaders of the world) have claimed that malaria tablets are no longer necessary as all their minions of hell have become immune to our fantastic drugs.

So what it really comes down to is whether I'm scared of a little, tiny insect with wings and a giant sucker on its face...

Well I am, diarrhoea it is.
