I'm travelling to Koh Samui, Koh Tao, Koh Phangan, Bangkok, Chiang Mai and also travelling across the Mekong river for a day trip & stopping off on a Laos island. Is there any need to take anti malaria tablets or is the risk small? Thanks, Steven
Local health authorities do not recommend travellers to take antimalarial tablet in Thailand. Their reason include small malaria risk, efficacy and side effect of the tablet.
There is an interesting article "Should I take antimalarial tablet in Thailand?" from a teaching hospital in Thailand. You may have a look.
