  • SWAZILAND 597 © Lonely Planet Publications Planet Lonely © (Hello) 268 %
    © Lonely Planet Publications 597 S w a z i l a n d Embedded between Mozambique and South Africa, the kingdom of Swaziland is one of the smallest countries in Africa. What the country lacks in size it makes up for in its rich culture and heritage, and relaxed ambience. With its laid-back, friendly people and relative lack of racial animosity, it’s a complete change of pace from its larger neighbours. SWAZILAND Visitors can enjoy rewarding and delightfully low-key wildlife watching, adrenaline-boost- ing activities, stunning mountain panoramas and lively traditions. Swaziland also boasts superb walking and high-quality handicrafts. Overseeing the kingdom is King Mswati III, one of three remaining monarchs in Africa. The monarchy has its critics, but combined with the Swazis’ distinguished history of resistance to the Boers, the British and the Zulus, it has fostered a strong sense of national pride, and local culture is flourishing. This is exemplified in its national festivals – the Incwala ceremony and the Umhlanga (Reed) dance (see the boxed text, p607 ). The excellent road system makes Swaziland easy to get around. Accommodation includes a decent network of hostels, family-friendly hotels and upscale retreats. Many travellers make a flying visit on their way to South Africa’s Kruger National Park, but it’s well worth lingering here if you can.

  • Travel Patterns and Demographic Characteristics of Malaria Cases In
    Tejedor‐Garavito et al. Malar J (2017) 16:359 DOI 10.1186/s12936-017-2004-8 Malaria Journal RESEARCH Open Access Travel patterns and demographic characteristics of malaria cases in Swaziland, 2010–2014 Natalia Tejedor‐Garavito1*† , Nomcebo Dlamini2†, Deepa Pindolia4, Adam Soble4, Nick W. Ruktanonchai1,3, Victor Alegana1,3, Arnaud Le Menach4, Nyasatu Ntshalintshali4, Bongani Dlamini4, David L. Smith5, Andrew J. Tatem1,3 and Simon Kunene2 Abstract Background: As Swaziland progresses towards national malaria elimination, the importation of parasites into recep- tive areas becomes increasingly important. Imported infections have the potential to instigate local transmission and sustain local parasite reservoirs. Methods: Travel histories from Swaziland’s routine surveillance data from January 2010 to June 2014 were extracted and analysed. The travel patterns and demographics of rapid diagnostic test (RDT)-confrmed positive cases identi- fed through passive and reactive case detection (RACD) were analysed and compared to those found to be negative through RACD. Results: Of 1517 confrmed cases identifed through passive surveillance, 67% reported travel history. A large propor- tion of positive cases reported domestic or international travel history (65%) compared to negative cases (10%). The primary risk factor for malaria infection in Swaziland was shown to be travel, more specifcally international travel to Mozambique by 25- to 44-year old males, who spent on average 28 nights away. Maputo City, Inhambane and Gaza districts were the most likely travel destinations in Mozambique, and 96% of RDT-positive international travellers were either Swazi (52%) or Mozambican (44%) nationals, with Swazis being more likely to test negative. All international travellers were unlikely to have a bed net at home or use protection of any type while travelling.
