Ebola Questions & Answers

As many of you are contemplating travel to Malawi next summer With Change In Mind wants to help give you some information on the recent Ebola outbreak that may be helpful.  We know that you are seeing Africa all over the news and all over social media right now. Unfortunately it is for only negative reasons. There is a lot of fear when it comes to travel in a place you have never been or a place which is getting so much negative attention. We are always committed to helping you collect all the information you need in order to make the best decision for you.

I have visited the CDC website in order to get what I believe is the best and most trustworthy information. There is a lot of information and a lot of articles out right now. We encourage everyone to be cautious about where you get your facts and always keep in mind the source when reading anything online.

This link is really well done and answers some of the most common questions that have come up.
