A group of Danish doctors are in the capital learning  travel medicine- a concept that teaches medical specialists or practitioners on diseases that are uncommon in their countries.

This is also the first meeting of international doctors organised privately by a Bhutanese firm trying to promote MICE (meetings, incentives, conferencing, exhibitions) idea.

The workshop coordinator said this is the opportunity for these doctors to recognise diseases that are uncommon in Denmark. “They have to learn about diseases that do not occur in Denmark but which people who travel outside of Denmark can contract when they travel and bring back to Denmark,” said Dr. Bjorn Melgaard.

For instance, diseases like malaria and dengue are rare in Denmark- which is also one of the talking points in this workshop.

“We are quite intrigued in Denmark about how Bhutanese measure the progress in terms of happiness and this will also be an opportunity for us to learn through this concept your health system,” said Dr. Mette Wanning.

Other discussions in the next four days will be on altitude sickness as through mountain experience; food safety and vaccination, zoonotic diseases and a Buddhist approach to illness predominantly on traditional medicine and their values.
