[QUOTE="chevyontheriver, post: 74826794, member: 381079"] I had to take it when I was in Africa in the Peace Corps. One of our guys decided he didn't need to take it in the dry season, came to visit me, and got malaria at my place. The cure for malaria is just a lot of chloroquine phosphate. He kept throwing it up so I had to give him more. It was no fun. Another PCV that I knew died of falciparum malaria a year later. So nothing to mess around with. My friend recovered, but it was a real 'Where There Is No Doctor' moment. I feel we're in for more of those sorts of moments if the doctors get sick, if the hospitals are full, and if we don't have a treatment like this might actually be. [/QUOTE]
