Last I checked here in Perth, whole blood donations are restricted for a period of one year following a trip to anywhere in Sri Lanka. Local vacation medicine sources recommend doxycycline two days prior to and fourteen days following.

I follow the guidelines....... YMMV -- See a physician to determine if the guidelines are appropriate for you.

Happy wandering

Fred
