You should get the appropriate jabs and also take Malaria medication prior to during and after your visit. We will give you a health brief when you arrive that covers the basics and if you follow this advise then the chances of your catching an illness will be greatly reduced. We live very healthy lives here and practice prevention rather than cure.
Malaria is present in Livingstone but for the most part it is less dangerous strains (there are 5). Covering up at night and using repellent and a Mosquito net greatly reduce the risk of infection.
Minor ailments can be dealt with in Livingstone. For major problems there are 3 flights a day to Johannesburg where medical facilities are world class.
