Medical expenses may not be paid by insurance companies for claims resulting from a tropical or other disease where you have not had the recommended vaccinations and / or taken the recommended medication.
It's entirely up to members whether they bother with "this health stuff" or even insurance. They're free to make up their own minds.
Rather than personal criticism of me and implication that I'm just a "cyber doctor" , I suggest you add me to your "Ignore" list. I have never criticised another member, nor felt the need to ignore them. Just for the record, the "rabies" post took 2 hours of reading up to date texbooks, time which could have been spent doing les_taxi's quiz. I don't mind, because enough members ask for and even print out my advice - it's got to be accurate.
So I can't blame you for failing the quiz - 27 % 
At least I knew the medical question !
