Malarial area

[Emmalauren]

I was shocked when I went to give blood today that the Scottish BTS class the Antalya area from Side to the East of Turkey as a malarial area.Antalya city is Ok.

As regular blood donors we too were disappointed that we were unable to give blood - on further investigation they told us that landing at Antalya was also a problem even if you were travelling west of the city. It is a very low category risk (precautionary) and was due to increased temperatures much farther to the east. I presume the English blood donor groups would also have the same status?
