Bahrain Health
Food & drink: Water is treated and considered safe by the Ministry of Health in Bahrain, although visitors may prefer to drink bottled water. All modern hotels have their own filtration plants. Visitors are advised to eat well-cooked meat and fish, preferably served hot.
Other risks: Typhoid fever and hepatitis A occur; hepatitis B is endemic.
Health care: There is a comprehensive medical service, with general and specialised hospitals in the main towns. An emergency health service is provided free of charge or at a nominal fee. Pharmacies are well-equipped with supplies. |
