Caribbean Food & Nutrition Institute - Jamaica

This is an example of what the class of '08 considers "Public Health work," the locals just call it "Dunn's River Falls, Ocho Rios, Jamaica." I was there to check for cryptosporidium & cholera. Luckily we didn't find either, just beautiful clear water, sandy beaches, tourists and plenty of sunshine. Although not one of my official PH duties, I did make sure that appropriate skin cancer prevention measures were taken by family.
