Cholera was first described in the areas around the Bay of Bengal and spread globally, resulting in seven pandemics during the past two centuries. It is caused by toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 or O139 bacteria. Cholera is characterised by mild to potentially fatal acute watery diarrhoeal disease.

Intestinal infection with Vibrio cholerae results in the loss of large volumes of watery stool, leading to severe and rapidly progressing dehydration and shock. Without adequate and appropriate rehydration therapy, severe cholera kills about half of affected individuals.

Cholera is an acute, watery diarrhoeal disease caused by Vibrio cholerae of the O1 or O139 serogroups. In the past two centuries, cholera has emerged and spread from the Ganges Delta six times and from Indonesia once to cause global pandemics. Rational approaches to the case management of cholera with oral and intravenous rehydration therapy have ...

Vibrio cholerae: Cholera toxin
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2007The bacterial protein toxin of Vibrio cholerae, cholera toxin, is a major agent involved in severe diarrhoeal disease. Cholera toxin is a member of the AB toxin family and is composed of a catalytically active heterodimeric A-subunit linked with a homopentameric B-subunit.

Few diseases invoke public fear as readily as cholera. In its most severe state, cholera can cause death from hypotensive shock within 12 h of the first symptom. Cholera typically occurs in epidemics, spreading rapidly within the community, especially if hygeinic conditions are poor.

Primary Care Update for OB/GYNS, 2001
Cholera, an infectious disease caused by Vibrio cholerae, is primarily transmitted by ingestion of contaminated food or water. In severe cases, cholera may lead to severe dehydration, metabolic acidosis, and ultimately, hypovolemic shock and death. The diagnosis is confirmed by identification of V. cholerae in a stool specimen.

Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 1994
Although it is more than a century since the discovery of the vibrio bacillus, cholera remains one of the great epidemic diseases of the tropical world. The epidemiology of cholera is an interaction between the biological and ecological properties of Vibrio cholerae and the complex patterns of human behaviour in tropical environments.
