Sorry to hear that!
Unfortunately, it can happen to anyone.
I’ve had a lot of success (knock on wood) by staying hydrated, limiting alcohol, drinking LMNT packets, and taking all my vitamins (especially vitamin C).
In countries with unreliable water, we avoid salads and fruits/vegetables without a peel (ex. bananas are fine, strawberries are a no) and we only drink bottled water or filter through out Grayl water filter bottle.
We’ve also taken Travelan with every meal on those trips and always carry Immodium and all sorts of other meds in a bag so we can treat anything as it comes up no matter where we are.
At the end of the day some things are unavoidable – we caught covid from our Alaska cruise last year.
Next time I will wear a N95 covid mask.
