Acute gastroenteritis in Akyarlar: what to know locally
Sunbeds, hotel pools and buffet counters define a stay in Akyarlar, and they are also where holiday illnesses usually begin. Other places within reach include Turgutreis, Kadikalesi, Guvercinlik. All-inclusive buffets sit out in the heat for hours, so tummy bugs spread rapidly through resort hotels. Tell your hotel if you are ill, and stay out of the pool until you have been symptom-free for 48 hours.
Causes and risk factors
Contaminated food or water, undercooked meat, shellfish, unwashed salads, ice in drinks, or contact with someone who is already ill. Hot weather lets bacteria multiply quickly, which is why it is common on summer holidays.
