Which way does the wind blow?

I was walking up this road in the camp today and I just had to laugh as it dawned on me…

As you walk up the road in this direction, to your right and about 50 yards away, is the staff tent where we slept and the tables where we would sometimes have our meals, etc.

To your left in this picture you see the isolation tents.  They are where the patients with communicable diseases were housed.  Minor diseases like TB, malaria, and typhoid.

Which way do you suppose the prevailing winds blow most of the time?  Ding, Ding, Ding!  You guessed it!

Really, there is enough separation that there wasn’t any danger, but I did get a kick out of it…
