ended up contracting several tropical diseases.

Mr du Toit was also diagnosed with deadly malaria twice after contracting it through mosquitoes breeding in the pool.

Good indeed.

Saw the pride of lions shot in the Guardian on Saturday, although they reported he'd contracted malaria and Leishmaniasis (not sure you ever fully recover from malaria once you've contracted it as you can have relapses).

Leishmans disease is fucking bad - I knew someone who still had it re-occuring following military service 20 years before.....

Great pics, but I have to say what a dick...

I thought if it was treated properly, you were all good?
