Cholera: The IllnessCholera: The Illness
Clinical Features
Acute diarrhoeal infectionDiarrhoea leads to death by
dehydration and kidney failure (stool output can reach 0.5-1L/hour) - hypotension, tachycardia, and vascular collapse

Short incubation period (2 hours to 5 days)
75% of those infected do not develop symptoms
100-1000 organisms may cause disease, although a million are needed to consistently infect

TransmissionTransmission
Direct fecal-oral contamination or ingestion of contaminated water and food
Linked to inadequate environmental management (lack of safe water and sufficient sanitation)
Human-Human contact does not spread the bacterium

TreatmentTreatment
Up to 80% of cases can be treated through oral rehydration salts
Severe cases require intravenous fluids (Ringer lactate)
Antibiotics can diminish duration of diarrhoea, reduce volume of rehydation fluids needed, and shorten duration of V.cholerae excretion

Some Definitions:
Strain: Subset of a bacteria differing from same species.
Biotype: Same genotype, but different phenotype.
Serotype: Closely related microorganisms distinguished by a characteristic set of antigens.

Many strains of Vibio cholerae.
O antigens distinguish 139 serotypes: O1 (3 biotypes—each has “classical” or El Tor phenotype), O139 Bengal.
O139 is a new serological strain with unique O-antigen (no residual immunity from O1)

Cholera toxinCholera toxin
Potent exotoxin multimeric protein complex of five binding
subunits (B) and one enzymatic (A) subunit.
B subunits bind to intestinal epithelia cell and A1 subunit enter cell and activates adenylate cyclase enzyme.

On our mission we came across a village in rural Bangladesh. It is very small but very crowded with poor water sanitation and irrigation systems.
Its position is dangerously close to the urban slums that have had cholera outbreaks within the past few months. Luckily, there has been no reported cases of cholera so far within the last 6 months… but now we have some decisions to make.

Discussion Question 1Discussion Question 1
What is our plan of action in regards to this village?
- Where should the emphasis be placed on protecting a population before an outbreak occurs? Vaccination or sanitation?
- What are the pros and cons of each?

Unfortunately, while the members were debating, an outbreak occurred in this village. What is the plan now?
-What is the best hybrid solution for controlling a cholera outbreak? You have short time and limited resources.
