\"Planning ahead for safe and healthy travel will make your experience at the winter Olympics all the more enjoyable. Make sure your vaccines are up to date, pack a travel medicine kit, check your insurance, and stay healthy through good habits such as frequent hand washing and you\u2019ll come home a champion with lasting memories.\"
\nTom Frieden, MD, MPH - Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
\n\u201cBeing part of a huge international crowd is one of the things that make the Olympic experience so special but it also means you need to take extra measures to make sure you stay safe and healthy. Be aware of your surroundings, careful when in crowds and using transportation and familiarize yourself with local laws and customs.\"
