Jane Goodall has been quite healthy most of her life. She, along with her mother who was accompanying her at the time, suffered a nasty bout of malaria when she was 26 and first started her work in Gombe. For several weeks they resisted making the long three hour trip by boat to see a doctor for treatment but finally gave in, and were given treatment for malaria. Jane would get malaria again a few months later. Goodall and her sister have a neurological condition known as prosopagnosia which is a memory impairment for face and patterns. She cannot recognize people's faces. Interestingly, though, she has no difficulty in deciphering the faces of the chimps that she has tracked and recalling their names.
She is, of course, now starting to slow down a bit and show her age (she was born in April 1934 and is 77 as of December 2011) but seems to still be in good health.
