Movimiento Travel

The capital of the Czech Republic has been in recent years one of the most popular tourist destinations and more affordable.

In 1992 the historical core of Prague became part of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage of UNESCO. The statement is just one more reason to visit the city, being one of the oldest cities in Europe that is noted only tread its soil. The city has an aura of mystery and melancholy that stops time, full of different architectural styles is logical that it is the cradle of dark legends and home to writers such as Kafka, the stroll through its streets is one of the best exercises inspiring may exist.

Among the buildings we mixtures Renaissance, Baroque, Art Nouveau, Gothic … it all feels like a place almost of enchantment that has been used as the setting for many movies and be there to understand why …

The city was born as a result of the construction of the Prague Castle (now the Presidential headquarters Castle) on the banks of the Vltava river, the foundations of the city dating from the Middle Ages, but was inhabited in the Paleolithic era and was the settlement of a Celtic tribe in the sixth century BC.
It is advisable to visit the city in autumn, and winters are quite hard and very hot summers, as well as best you can enjoy Prague is loitering, which is not nice if the weather is not accompanied by at least a little.

For lovers of literature this is a place of worship, because Prague is where Kafka stayed and where they came his best works. Some of the places where he lived as a tenant in a room are now small museums in particular is one that is in the old street of the alchemists to the king Rodolfo accommodate those who sought the philosopher’s stone, the place is easily recognizable because house is a small gray facade lined the cobblestone street is in the same spot as the astrological clock and the central square where the executions took place. It is one of the most crowded areas so that there will be no trouble finding it.

Among the attractions of the city we have the Charles Bridge, with thirty statues of saints and that is a place of pilgrimage for believers Czechs.

It is also well known Jewish Quarter: Josejov, one of the oldest in Europe and transmitting the last anguish during the war and is interspersed with the boom that has today. They are also well-known ancient Jewish cemeteries and synagogues, one of them the Klausen Synagogue where they are exposed many children’s drawings made during the Holocaust.

One feature of Prague is the beautiful and dramatic mix, effect that filters its people, as they are very reserved, a result that this area was always the center of many wars and conflicts, but no longer a magical travel to perform.

While traveling is a pleasure to do when one must take the necessary precautions for health concerns. Although it is not something we do often and still have prejudices about the “painful? Prevention technique, vaccines are very useful and can guard against big trouble in the destinations we have chosen to visit. They can even save us from death!

If you’re going to take you seriously your trip, you should also be aware of the dangers to your health can be exposed. So in this note we will some of the shots you cannot stop to consider when making preparations for your journey.

Yellow Fever

Any country that is part of the WHO (World Health Organization) will be required to have placed the yellow fever vaccine as a condition for admission. It is perhaps the most basic vaccination of all travelers. To prove that you have been vaccinated, you should extend a vaccination certificate is issued only by centers approved by the WHO.

This vaccine has some contraindications, such as that cannot be used by individuals with immunosuppressant (weakened immune system of the body and its ability to fight infections and other diseases) in under 9 months, pregnant women or with hypersensitivity to eggs (one component of the vaccine.)

Encephalitis

To travel to Central and / or Asia, it should give you Encephalitis vaccine, since it is an evil that afflicts this area.

This is a serious disease that can be transmitted in two ways: by a tick, a variety known as Summer Encephalitis, which lives in wooded areas of Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, Austria and Slovakia, or by a virus, a variety known as Japanese encephalitis is present in areas of rice fields throughout Asia, including eastern Russia, Japan, China, India, Pakistan and Southeast Asia.

You give it in advance, at least two months before the date of your trip. The vaccine strain of the virus is contraindicated in pregnant women and persons with febrile illness or active infectious, while the Summer Encephalitis is contraindicated in persons with prior hypersensitivity to the vaccine or any of its components.

Typhoid

China, India and Africa are complex destinations in terms of health: there will be indispensable-addition to vaccines for encephalitis-Apply the Typhoid vaccine. This disease is transmitted up through the consumption of contaminated food and water. It is likely that we encounter with food prepared in unhygienic conditions, mainly by pollution in the water. There are also serious cases of flu, so do not miss this prevention.

General measures

There are certain vaccines that are general for any trip you make, you might already have given you, as they are fairly every day. They are indispensable, but it is very convenient when walking away from home, for example, rabies vaccine, typically a disease that we may encounter in rural settings where they live wild animals.

Another example is the hepatitis. Both hepatitis A and hepatitis B, both are viral diseases. Although Hepatitis B is more difficult to spread by transmitted only by blood or sexual relations, is the more serious of the two. Currently there is a vaccine that prevents you from both variants of disease, which is ideal for your trip.

Finally, the Cholera is another disease that can warn you, mainly because the vaccine is one of the easiest to deliver, which holds less contraindication, and that has greater compatibility with other vaccines.

Is the vaccine against malaria?

If you’re a savvy traveler, you’ve ever struggled with the disease of malaria or malaria, both in complex disease prevention as well as medications.

I have good news to tell: The Center for Health Research Manhiça (CISM), based in Mozambique, is hopeful that in 2015 a vaccine is available to deal with this disease.

The CISM is one of Africa’s most important centers in the area of health research and in 2002 first showed the effectiveness of an experimental vaccine against malaria-disease known as malaria, with an efficiency of six months.
