Additionally, there have been many documented major local cholera outbreaks, such as a 1991–1994 outbreak in South America and, more recently, the 2016–2021 Yemen cholera outbreak. [ 2 ] Although much is known about the mechanisms behind the spread of cholera , this has not led to a full understanding of what makes cholera outbreaks happen ...

Today we report on new genetic research that may lead to tools or treatments to prevent cholera outbreaks, and on a study of a potentially practice-changing approach to treating some liver tumors.
Cholera dissemination across Asia and Europe in 1817–1831. The first cholera pandemic (1817–24) began near Kolkata and spread throughout Southeast Asia to the Middle East, eastern Africa, and the Mediterranean coast. While cholera had spread across India many times previously, this outbreak went farther; it reached as far as China and the ...
Avian cholera also has been a problem in E. Washington and Oregon. Avian flu and cholera kills 100s more birds near Tri-Cities. How you can help stop the spread
