I lived in C.R. the first 28 years of my life and I never even heard of anyone contracting malaria. I would say it depends greatly on what part of the country you're visiting. If you're going where most people don't go (the jungles along the Nicaraguan border or deep into the swampy lowlands in some remote areas), then you're safer getting the meds.
There is no vaccine for malaria. The American CDC recommends prophylaxis with Chloroquine. In the cities, beaches or resorts, I just spray some mosquito repellent.
[Disclaimer: I'm no medical expert so take this advice for what it's worth. If in doubt, just go get your meds]

yes, you should take your thyroid meds while on the hcg diet protocol. Some people find their low thyroid meds need to be reduced as they lose weight. You may feel symptoms of hyper thyroid if this is the case. Meds may need to be reduced because your body fat is decreasing and your hormone levels will change with your body. If you do not take your meds, your losses will be slower and stalls will happen more.
