Clarification on all the bad reviews. The info is great and if you live in the developing world and see patients it is invaluable. Great info without a WiFi. It is a trial version. It lists all the topics you can see with a subscription. I think people just want everything for free nowadays. It’s a great app.

Not really a preview

I don’t think any reasonable man would call this a “Preview.” Once you waste your time and data downloading the app, you will ONLY have access to a “water disinfection for travelers” document. If you want to know what the app contains and how it functions you’ll have to pay $30 or just go to the CDC website where it’s free.

We appreciate your feedback. The current Preview version offers 11 available entries in the "Contents" section and 46 available entries within the "Topics" section to aid in a user's decision whether to purchase. Purchasing an account unlocks the remaining content and also grants the ability to add Favorites and Notes so that you can easily return to entries that are important. Also, once the content has been synced to your device, it is accessible without an internet connection. These perks set the mobile app apart from accessing the content online.

Don’t waste your time - go to CDC instead

Complete waste of time. The “previews” are no such thing and nearly all information is behind a $30 paywall. Don’t bother with this cash grab. Go to the CDC website where all the information is available freely. It is disgraceful that a public health info resource like this that is already paid for by taxpayers and donations *and* that has all the info for free on the CDC website is being sold here for a hefty profit. Absolutely shameful behavior. A minor convenience fee of $1-$3 or so would be perfectly fine, but present cost is criminal.

Too Basic, should be free

Too basic and limited. Doesn't state which areas are moderate to high-risk for travelers’ diarrhea, which most travelers will contract. Doesn’t offer advice on routine vaccines such as MMR for areas with community outbreak of measles. This is not a good app for beginners or experts in travel medicine. It’s too basic and should be a free app.
