When we go to another country, why do we get sick (and in some cases die) and not the locals?
My apologies. I am aware that locals do die as well. I was just trying to prove a point to my younger sister. Our future sister in law recently went to Fiji and drank the water. She is pregnant. She has had a migraine for 24 hours now and felt her uterus drop. She has other symptoms as well and is on her way to the ER and we are meeting them there. My younger sister is convinced that there can be no connection between our sister-in-law getting sick and drinking the water in Fiji. I say it can be a possibility.
