Not trying to sound ignorant... I wonder what the statistics are? Are chances greater that you will be killed by a car crash or by malaria while in india? What do you think? And would people take the "anti carcrash" pill if there was one?

My tropical medicine doctor showed me the charts of the spread of the several forms of malaria before I left, and most of India was in the low danger zone - just the northeast near Myanmar was high. He advised to take along Malarone and use them only if I should actually get malaria, saying that local hospitals are used to treating it. Did so, and didn't get to use them. No regrets, would do it this way again.
