Cholera

Cholera Risk and Prevention

Cholera outbreaks often occur in regions with inadequate hygiene facilities, such as slums, refugee camps, and areas impacted by floods or heavy rains. While most travellers face minimal risk of cholera exposure, the danger is significantly higher for emergency relief and health workers in refugee camps.

Cholera Vaccine

To protect against cholera, an effective oral vaccine is available. It is administered in two doses, spaced one to six weeks apart. The cholera vaccine can significantly reduce the risk of infection for those working or traveling in high-risk areas.
