The risk is low. People who are over 60 years of age, have an underlying disease, or have a weakened immune system are at higher risk for the more severe form of West Nile virus.
The following precautions are recommended:
If you have visited a West Nile fever transmission area, do not donate blood for at least 28 days after your return.

Fever during or after a stay in a malaria-endemic area is an emergency! Prompt diagnosis and treatment are required as the health of people with malaria can deteriorate very quickly. That means: if you have fever >37.5° (use a thermometer!) you need to test for malaria within a maximum time-frame of 24 hours, regardless of whether or not you have used prophylactic medication (malaria chemoprophylaxis). Try to reach a doctor or hospital where you can reliably receive such a test. If the first test is negative, it should be repeated on the following day if the fever persists.
Prevention of malaria requires a combination of approaches:
For travellers, there is currently no malaria vaccination available.
There is a risk of arthropod-borne diseases other than malaria, dengue, chikungunya or zika in sub-/tropical regions, and some areas of Southern Europe. These include the following diseases [and their vectors]:
