Morocco Health
Below are some information and tips on Morocco health:Food & Drinks:
As a rule, do not drink tap water at all in Morocco, even in hotels. Bottled water is widely available. Be wary that ice may be made with tap water. Some hotels provide free bottled water to guests and it is wise to keep a supply in your room so as not to be tempted with tap water.
Buying food from street vendors carries some risk of getting sick.
Vaccination:
Luckily Morocco is basically Malaria-free.No vaccinations are required by law to enter Morocco, but typhoid, hepatitis A and hepatitis B are three vaccinations that are strongly recommended. It is good idea to be up to date with your polio and tetanus vaccines
Health care:
There are good medical facilities in all main cities, including emergency pharmacies outside opening hours. Government hospitals are ok for minor injuries, but for anything serious, a private clinic is generally preferable.If you need hospital treatment, contact your consulate at once and follow its advice. Full Health Insurance is essential.
