When you travel on DXpeditions* (or for other purposes) taking care of your personal health and safety is important! The CDC Yellow Book (https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/page/yellowbook-home) is a useful reference to use in your mission planning.
CDC's Yellow Book (Health Information for International Travel) is published every two years as a resource for health professionals providing care to international travelers. The fully revised and updated CDC Yellow Book 2020 compiles the US government’s most current travel health guidelines, including pretravel vaccine recommendations, destination-specific health advice, and easy-to-reference maps, tables, and charts.
Additional travel security information is available from OSAC:

*A DXpedition is an expedition to what is considered an exotic place by amateur radio operators, perhaps because of its remoteness, access restrictions or simply because there are very few radio amateurs active from that place.
