Serious Question: What on earth will you do if you get sick when on the road? You can't hop on a flight and head back home. This is the crux I have been contemplating.
I would not travel right now to a country where that was a serious risk. But I have had my appendix out overseas in Canada before. I stayed there for three weeks while I recovered. It wasn't ideal, but it was fine.
