Default Malaria Prevention

My brother, who is with World, is being told to take Malarone a day prior to entering any African country and the whole time in country, and continue for seven days after the trip. When I was at Atlas going to Nairobi and Lagos I never took malaria meds and never noticed a mosquito problem... I was inside at night anyway.

Isn't this very dangerous for him to take. Especially considering his doctor is telling to do this regiment every time he goes through there....every month.

Any thoughts from others would be appreciated.
