不要让生病阻碍你的旅行大纲
We know from TV ads that it's a simple matter to get insurance cover for a holiday abroad if you have medical conditions. But what can you do yourself to keep yourself safe? There are several aspects to this ?including your medication, your jabs, what you eat, what you do and how you organise your trip.
我们从广告中得知：如果你生病了出去玩，那最好买份海外度假保险。但你可以做些什么保证自己的安全呢？你可以从多个方面入手，包括：药、工作、饮食、做什么，以及如何安排自己的旅行。Remember, travel agents, airlines and hotels are primed to look after people with chronic ailments and disabilities. You might consider turning over your whole holiday to a specialist agent who will plan every aspect of your trip.
记住，旅游机构、航空公司和宾馆都可以很好的照顾慢性疾病患者和残疾人士。也许，你可以考虑找一位专业代理人，他会为你计划好一切。Make sure you're up to date with your routine vaccinations - MMR, chickenpox, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, polio and your flu jab, plus hepatitis A, typhoid and any special vaccinations for the countries you're visiting, not forgetting malaria ?prevention.
确保出国前打了常规疫苗--麻疹、腮腺炎和风疹的联合疫苗（MMR）、水痘、白喉-破伤风-百日咳、小儿麻痹和流感疫苗，以及甲型肝炎、伤寒和您旅游的国家要求接种的疫苗，别忘了预防疟疾哦。
Take a first-aid kit containing insect repellent with 20% or more DEET, and a variety of dressings, bandages, motion ?sickness tablets, an antacid for ?indigestion. Plus an antiseptic cream for cuts and 1% hydrocortisone cream to soothe sunburn and insect bites.
带上一个急救包，包里备有驱蚊胺（DEET）含量20%以上的驱蚊液、各种各样的敷料、创口贴、晕车药、以及治疗消化不良的抗酸剂。还有治伤口的抗菌霜、1%的氢化可的松乳膏以舒缓晒伤和蚊虫叮咬。
For tummy problems I take Lomotil, and non-drowsy antihistamine tablets for allergies and rashes. Cover your sunscreen needs with a special very high SPF for your children and a 30+ SPF for yourself. Reapply every four hours, especially if you're swimming, irrespective of the maker's recommendations.
如果闹肚子，我带了复方苯乙哌啶片。还带了用于过敏和皮疹的非嗜睡抗组胺药片。用防晒指数高一点的防晒霜给孩子防晒，自己用防晒指数30+的防晒霜就行了。每隔4小时涂抹一次，尤其是游泳的时候，这时候就不要管游泳池禁止涂抹防晒霜的标语了。Only eat "safe food" that's cooked and served hot, and fruit and veg you've washed yourself in bottled water and peeled yourself. There are countries where the purity of water can't be guaranteed so only drink water from a sealed bottle you open yourself. Ice should also be prepared from bottled water.
只吃"安全的食物"，也就是煮熟的、热腾腾的食物。水果和蔬菜要自己用瓶装水洗、自己削皮。在有些国家，水的纯净度得不到保证，所以只喝自己打开的瓶装水。冰块也应该用瓶装水制备。Wash your hands as often as you can, and always before eating. I carry a hand sanitiser and use it frequently.
尽可能勤的洗手，吃饭前一定要洗手。我带了洗手液，用的次数很多。When making a hotel booking ask for a disabled room and give them the measurements of your wheelchair if you use one. Make sure your ?bathroom meets your needs. Let your airline know about your special needs too such as transport to the plane, ?assistance checking in and going through security.
预定酒店时，要一个残疾人专用房间，如果你使用轮椅，那就告诉他们你轮椅的尺寸。确保浴室能满足你的需要。将你的特殊要求告知航空公司，比如需要有人推您上飞机、帮您办理登机手续、过安检。
