Has anyone checked how many travelers left West Australia, to travel overseas, with these infectious diseases already in their system and spread them in their holiday destination of choice?

the pollution is growing in the hair and in the water, problems of typhus,ameba and salmonella are more and more common in Bali.
i was in the hospital after contracting pneumonia ,i don’t smoke, i don’t drink, i don’t use motorbike…its viral!
mostly of my friends got dengue, someone even two-three times!
i think its really time to take serious decisions to make the island more healthy before it will be too late.

Not questioning that almost 1400 travelers returning to WA with infectious diseases is 1400 too many but does anyone know how many West Australians traveled overseas in 2012, how many of them to Indonesia and Bali? With the same figures available for 2011 we’d be able to judge if the development is in proportion with tourism growth or indeed indicating worsening health and hygiene standards in Bali.
