Malaria is a serious disease and, perhaps after traffic accidents, the biggest risk to travelers in West Africa. Before coming here, you should be familiar with malaria and how to prevent it. For starters, see Malaria Information for Travelers to Countries in West Africa published by the US Centers for Disease Control. This is the authoritative site as far as the US is concerned. Information given by physicians is not always in line with these guidelines, or may be misunderstood, so it's important to read the CDC guidelines and ask your doctor if there are points that need to be clarified.
See the Patient Information Page on malaria from JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association.
