The risk of contracting malaria is higher in rural parts of Kenya, so expats planning to spending time in these areas are advised to consider precautionary methods such as anti-malarial prophylaxis and using repellent.

In certain regions altitude sickness or heat related ailments may also be a risk. Expats should be sure to drink enough water and avoid overexposure to the sun. If food safety is a concern it is best to avoid drinking tap water and eating any food containing unpasteurized dairy products.

Routine vaccinations are recommended, as well as additional vaccinations for polio, rabies and hepatitis, particularly if expats plan on spending time in rural areas. It is also essential that expats moving to Kenya have a yellow fever vaccination and carry the certificate when travelling in and out of the country.
