| Health Care |
|
Full health insurance is essential and should include medical evacuation insurance. There are some hospital facilities in
the main towns but, at the moment, adequate medical facilities are virtually non-existent. However, there are some good private
clinics in Luanda. Medical treatment is free although often inadequate, and visitors should travel with their own supply of
remedies for simple ailments such as stomach upsets, as pharmaceutical supplies are usually extremely difficult to obtain.
|
| |
| Note |
|
* A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required from travellers over one year of age coming from infected areas.
