Cholera response

Cholera response involves quickly providing clean water, safe sanitation, and medical care to those affected by the disease, which causes severe diarrhea and dehydration. Health authorities identify and treat cases with rehydration therapy to prevent death. They also promote good hygiene practices, such as handwashing and safe food handling. In addition, outbreak investigations help locate infection sources to contain the spread. Public awareness campaigns inform communities about prevention measures. Together, these efforts aim to control the outbreak, reduce illness, and prevent future cases by improving water quality and sanitation infrastructure.
