## Resource

Travel just got more complicated—and scarier—thanks to lingering health concerns, geopolitical chaos, and natural disasters. Dr. Anne Zink, who led Alaska’s pandemic response, now warns travelers that while infections like cyclospora outbreaks are real, trauma and delayed medical care pose far greater risks abroad. She urges simple but vital precautions: pack your meds, hydrate, wear sun protection, and consider emergency evacuation insurance for remote spots. Even as she plans a family trip to Nepal—the place that inspired her medical career—she’s a reminder that adventure shouldn’t come at the cost of safety.
