US embassy cable - 05PRAGUE634

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Nutritionist, Grand Forks USDA/ARS/NPA. North Dakota, to 
visit the Czech Republic 5/20 - 6/02, 2005 to make a 
presentation on women's iron absorption.

3.  Security:  All Americans are advised to be continually 
aware of their surroundings, alert to suspicious activities 
or individuals and to avoid large gatherings.  With regard to 
crime, Prague is normally a very safe city by U.S. standards 
but visitors are encouraged to exercise common sense 
precautions and to be particularly wary of Prague's famously 
efficient pickpockets and scam artists.  Special caution is 
warranted in and around train stations and when  boarding, 
riding or exiting trams.  When taking taxis, we recommend 
visitors insist that the meter be used or that travelers 
agree on a fare with the driver in advance.
