4 Health Mistakes to Avoid Making When Traveling
旅行时应避免犯下的四大健康错误
Everyone is talking about amazing travel experiences. However, there is always the other side of the coin. With a host of good experiences, there are even more bad ones, such as disease, robbery or mysterious bug bites, you name it. If you want to add more wonderful travel experiences to your life, make sure you avoid these health mistakes during your next trip.
人人都在谈论绝妙的旅行经历。然而,事情总有另一面。旅行有很多美好的经历,但是糟糕的经历甚至更多,比如:疾病、抢劫或被神秘的蚊虫叮咬,应有尽有。如果想要让你的生活多一些精彩的旅行经历,一定要确保在下一次旅行期间避免以下的健康错误。
Refusing injection
拒绝打针
If you are asked to have an injection in order to avoid a certain disease before traveling to your destination, make sure you get it. In many cases, mosquito bites lead to malaria and there are many other health risks that you may face during your trip. Refusing injections is the worst thing you can do to your health. However, consult your doctor before having any type of injection.
在去旅游目的地之前,如果有人让你打一针以避免某种疾病,一定要确保你打了。很多情况下,蚊子叮咬会导致疟疾,而且在旅途中,你还可能遇到很多其它的健康风险。拒绝打针是你对身体所能做的最糟糕的事情。但是,在打任何针之前,请先咨询一下医生。
Eating out in the street
吃街头小吃
Budget travelers are all guilty of eating street food. Yes, it is cheaper and tastier than restaurant meals. However, when visiting a country where clean food and dishes are not priority, your stomach may not survive this experiment. Just because locals eat street food and feel and look healthy, does not mean you will feel and look the same. Do a better research to find the place where you can eat clean and healthy food for cheap.
穷游族都为吃街头小吃而感到愧疚。是的,这些小吃比餐馆里的饭菜更便宜、也更美味。但当你旅游的这个国家不是十分重视干净的食物和餐盘时,你的肚子在这场实验(旅行)中是不能幸免于难的。地方风味街头小吃看起来健康,但这并不意味着吃到肚子里的感受是一样的。攻略做好点,找个可以吃到既便宜又干净健康食物的地方。
Drinking tap water
饮用自来水
Staying hydrated is essential, so is the water choice. Even if locals tell you that their tap water is safe to drink, it is best to opt for bottled water. While it is not the healthiest option, it is at least clean. It is always better to be safe than sorry.
保持水分十分重要,选择喝什么水也一样重要。即使当地人告诉你可以放心饮用他们那边的自来水,但最好还是选择瓶装水。虽然这并不是最为健康的选择,但至少是干净的。事前小心总好过事后后悔。
Skipping health insurance details
跳过健康保险细节
Most tourists get health insurance, but they fail to find out all the details of it. Then, in case of accident, a serious injury or disease, it turns out that their health insurance does not cover the expenses that have nothing to do with the insurance company. Know the details before purchasing your insurance.
多数游客都有健康保险,但他们弄不清所有的细节。那样,在发生意外事故、受伤严重或感染疾病的情况下,事实会表明他们的健康保险并不涵盖那些与保险公司无关的费用。所以在购买保险前,要了解各种细节。
