"Egypt is a fantastic holiday destination and is popular amongst holiday makers from the UK. It gives Brits the chance to experience an extraordinary culture and breathtaking scenery. Unfortunately though, many holidaymakers are returning home with complaints about hygiene standards. Several people have fallen victim to an Egypt holiday illness that sadly ruins some peoples holidays.
There have been several reports of Egypt holiday illness breakouts in hotels across the country in the last 5 years. The poor cooking, cleaning and swimming pool standards in the resorts have come in for particular scrutiny.
Egypt holiday illness reports have included conditions such as Salmonella, Shigella, Norovirus, Cryptosporidium, Cholera, Hepatitis, Malaria, Typhoid and Polio.
Shigella and Salmonella are the two most common Egypt holiday illness conditions, and fortunately they do not usually result in long term health problems. They can however wreck a once in a lifetime holiday.
Dehydration however can worsen the effects of an Egypt holiday illness, and with dehydration being so easy to experience in the country, extreme caution should be taken. The symptoms can include dark urine, a dry mouth and regular tiredness. In some cases dehydration can lead to more severe problems like kidney and liver failure.
There are plenty of precautions you can take in order to prevent dehydration and avoid contracting an Egypt holiday illness. Drink plenty of water every day but only drink bottled water. Egypt has been notorious for having unhygienic tap water. Also, avoid pouring bottled water into a glass of ice, as there is every chance the ice could be contaminated.
