http://www.nevdgp.org.au/travel/dis/cholera.htm

Extractions: Cholera is an acute illness characterised by watery diarrhoea. The toxin released by the bacteria can produce massive diarrhoea. Death can result from the severe dehydration brought on by the diarrhoea. Cholera occurs in epidemics when conditions of poor sanitation, crowding, war, and famine are present. Endemic areas include India, Asia, Africa, the Mediterranean, and more recently, South and Central America, Mexico, and the U.S.. The infection is acquired by ingesting contaminated food or water. A type of vibrio also has been associated with shellfish, especially raw oysters. Risk: The risk of contracting Cholera is estimated at only 1 in 100,000 travellers. Indications for current vaccination: Travellers to highly endemic areas who do not have ready access to medical attention and in those with impaired gastric defences. Two new oral vaccines (likely to be available in Australia in 2000) The WC/rBS vaccine (inactivated vaccine) and provides 85% efficacy, with 72% protection at 3 years in those over 5 years. 2 doses 1 - 2 weeks apart.

They said residents of Ndlwalane, Lusikisi, believed that the unidentified man had poured something into a local river that caused a cholera outbreak which has so far killed 12 people. The latest victim of epidemic was a local nurse, who had been admitted to the Holy Cross Hospital. She apparently fell ill while treating cholera patients late last year. Health Department spokesperson Sizwe Kupelo said the incident was reported when district officials visited the village on Monday as part of a cholera awareness campaign.

Coordinate units are meters. The data in these files consists of: Each coordinate point in the file "deaths" specifies the address of a person who died from cholera. When many points are associated with a single street address, they are "stacked" in a line away from the street so that they are more easily visualized. This is how they are displayed on John Snow's original map. The dates of the deaths are not recorded. The data files were created for a student exercise included in NCGIA Technical Report 93-5: Teaching Introductory Geographical Data Analysis with GIS: A Laboratory Guide for an Integrated Spacestat/Idrisi Environment, edited by Rusty Dodson, preface by Luc Anselin.
NWHC: Avian Cholera Information
Integrated studies on waterfowl and wetland ecosystems have been investigatinghow avian cholera is maintained and spread across the country.

Extractions: [Text-only Version] Biologists from the USGS, in collaboration with other resource agencies, have been working to untangle the ecological complexities of an infectious bacterial disease called Avian Cholera . Integrated studies on waterfowl and wetland ecosystems have been investigating how avian cholera is maintained and spread across the country. Results implicate birds as the most likely reservoir for perpetuating this deadly disease. Avian cholera is one of the most common diseases among wild North American waterfowl. It is the result of infection with the bacterium Pasteurella multocida . This bacterium kills swiftly, sometimes in as few as six to twelve hours after infection. Live bacteria released into the environment by dead and dying birds can subsequently infect healthy birds. As a result, avian cholera can spread quickly through a wetland and kill thousands of birds in a single outbreak. Biologists from NWHC looked for living bacteria in water of affected wetlands throughout the U.S. In many cases, they were able to isolate bacteria in samples taken during disease outbreaks. In contrast, samples collected 1-3 months following winter or spring outbreaks or in the subsequent fall did not contain

http://www.nwhc.usgs.gov/facts/cholera.html

Extractions: AVIAN CHOLERA Cause Bacteria Pasteurella multocida Host Most species of birds and mammals can become infected with different strains of this bacteria, however, avian cholera in wild birds is primarily caused by one strain, Type 1. The species of birds most commonly affected are ducks and geese, coots, gulls, and crows. Transmission The bacteria can be transmitted by bird-to-bird contact, contact with secretions or feces of infected birds, or ingestion of food or water containing the bacteria. Aerosol tranmission may also occur. The bacteria may survive up to 4 months in soil and water. Clinical Signs/Field Signs Large die-offs are seen primarily in wild ducks and geese where the disease affects birds peracutely. The sudden appearance of large numbers of dead birds in good body condition with few if any sick birds is observed. Death may be so rapid that birds literally fall out of the sky or die while eating with no previous signs of disease. Sick birds appear lethargic, and when captured may die within minutes. Other signs include convulsions; swimming in circles; throwing the head back between the wings; erratic flight, such as flying upside down or trying to land a foot or more above the water; mucous discharge from the mouth; soiling or matting of the feathers around the vent, eyes, and bill; pasty, fawn-colored or yellow droppings; or blood-stained droppings or nasal discharge.

How The Cholera Bacterium Got Its Virulence
How the cholera Bacterium Got Its Virulence Harvard Researchers Findcholera Bacterium May Take Instruction From a Virus. BOSTONJune

Extractions: Harvard Researchers Find Cholera Bacterium May Take Instruction From a Virus BOSTONJune 28, 1996In 1993, as cholera swept through India, scientists were faced with a set of perplexing questions: What caused the deadly Bengal strain of cholera to reappear? Where did the deadly cholera pathogen come from in the first place? Scientists have known that the cholera bacterium (Vibrio cholera) owes its virulence to two factorsthe cholera toxin and another protein, TCP pili, which enables it to clump together and adhere to the intestines. But how the Vibrio cholera got those deadly factors has been a mystery. Two Harvard Medical School scientists have found a partial answer to the puzzle. It appears that the cholera pathogen responsible for the Indian epidemic (Vibrio cholera 01) picked up one of its most lethal patches of DNAthe gene coding for the cholera toxinfrom a virus, CTX phage. "Here you have this dumb bacteriumVibrio cholerae doesn't know how to become a pathogenand the virus instructs it by introducing the cholera gene into the bacterial genome. The virus is the smart player in the interaction," says John Mekalanos, Shipley Professor of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. He and Matthew K. Waldor, research fellow in medicine, announced their findings in the June 28 issue of Science. The virus's first clever act is to select its students. It appears to introduce the gene for cholera toxin only into those bacteria that express the TCP pili protein.

Cars, Cholera, And Cows: The Management Of Risk And Uncertainty
Cato Policy Analysis No. 335, March 4, 1999. Cars, cholera, and CowsThe Management of Risk and Uncertainty. by John Adams. John Adams
http://www.cato.org/pubs/pas/pa-335es.html

Extractions: The Management of Risk and Uncertainty by John Adams John Adams is professor of geography, University College, London, England. He is the author of Risk (1995) and "Virtual Risk and the Management of Uncertainty," in the Royal Society's Science, Policy and Risk (1997). Executive Summary Everyone takes and manages risks, balancing potential rewards against uncertain losses. Experts provide advice about managing risk, but with limited success. Part of their difficulty stems from an incomplete appreciation of the different kinds of risk and part from their inadequate consideration of the different mindsets with which people respond to risks. Directly perceptible risks are managed instinctively and intuitively. Professional attempts to manage them are thwarted by people who insist on being their own risk managers. Risks perceptible with the help of science include infectious diseases. Quantitative estimates of such risks are frustrated by the reflexivity of risk. Virtual risks include mad cow disease and suspected carcinogens. Scientists do not know or cannot agree about the nature or magnitude of these risks, and nonscientists argue from preestablished beliefs, convictions, and superstitions. Imaginary or not, virtual risks have real consequences for individuals, corporations, and governments. This paper examines the cultural filters through which people view virtual risks and describes some of the longstanding debates about virtual risks that arise because of those filters. Understanding our ignorance of the risks and filters is a precondition for civilized debate about virtual risks.
