Extracted onto the pages of GENUKI with the kind permission of the National Library of Wales This is a complete extract of this article [Gareth Hicks 2002] Asiatic cholera is a specific infectious disease of high mortality, characterized clinically by violent vomiting and purging leading rapidly to collapse, the choleraic stools having a typical appearance that is generally described as 'rice-water'-a term that well-illustrates their colour and consistency. The causative organism, the cholera vibrio, is a comma-shaped bacillus that was first described by Robert Koch in 1883. In addition to promoting this corporate cleanliness, cholera was also a major force in a resurgence of godliness in the mid-century, and in Wales certainly the fear engendered by its mystery and mortality filled chapels and churches and gave added impetus to revivalism. A less malign infection generally known as 'cholera nostras' or 'the English cholera' had been quite common in these islands long before the advent of Asiatic cholera or 'cholera morbus'. It was simply a summer diarrhoea generally resulting from contamination of food with the Salmonella group of micro-organisms. Although Lewis Morris described a 'cholera morbus' in Anglesey in July and August 1741 and another instance of it in July 1754

The lack of clean water and security combined with economic troubles are allowing cholera to spread rapidly, WHO spokesman Ian Simpson said Thursday. "Cholera has a fatality rate of more than 50 percent if it is not treated," he said. "This is probably the most serious health concern in Iraq right now." About 50 samples have been sent to a laboratory in Kuwait for testing. Cholera is an acute diarrheal illness caused by infection of the intestine. In severe cases, it can lead to dehydration and shock, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The illness can easily be prevented and treated but the World Health Organization said Thursday that conditions in Basra make it difficult to do either.

    Extractions: Introduction and background Introduction Shapter's Career History of the Cholera Origins of Cholera ... Extracts from the Book Introduction Dr Thomas Shapter, LL.D., M.D., FRCP (1809-1902) was born in Gibraltar, graduated from Edinburgh University, and arrived in Exeter in the year cholera arrived, 1832. Today, Dr Shapter is best known for the account he wrote of this devastating cholera outbreak . A portrait of Shapter, can be viewed at: Thomas Shapter Portrait Shapter's Career Shapter soon developed a medical practice in Exeter and became a member of the governing body of the City, the Chamber, in 1835. As Newton puts it "his early admission into the restricted governing class of a cathedral city is a measure of his personality, as well as of his political and religious orthodoxy". Such ties were further cemented by his marriage in 1840 to the Reverend Samuel Blackhall’s daughter. He was later to become Mayor (twice) and Sherriff of the City. He was appointed physician in 1847 at the Exeter and Devon Hospital but he also worked for the Magdalen Hospital, The Lying-in-Charity and St Thomas’ Hospital for Lunatics (1845). He led an active public life and when cholera again posed a threat in 1867 he opposed plans to transfer the powers of the Improvement Commissioners to the Board of Health under the 1858 Health Act. He appears to have still believed in the efficacy of the measures and institutions established during the 1830s.

    Extractions: Cholera-causing bacteria Cholera is an intestinal infection caused by a bacteria - and is often linked to contaminated supplies of drinking water. By the start of the 20th Century, six major cholera "pandemics" had affected countries across the world. The world is now fighting the seventh, caused by a new strain of the Vibrio cholerae bacterium. Epidemics involving this strain started in 1961 in Indonesia, spreading rapidly elsewhere in eastern Asia, and from there to India and Bangladesh, the USSR, Iran and Iraq. The bacterium is part of the flora of brackish water and estuaries - it is when this water gets into the drinking supply that an outbreak can start. It causes severe diarrhoea and vomiting, and patients, particularly children and the elderly, are vulnerable to dangerous dehydration as a result. Treating the condition - or rather alleviating these severe effects, requires only simple measures. However, the clean water and rehydration salts required are often in short supply in areas where they are needed most.

    Extractions: Cholera Cholera is a really bad infection. It gives you diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration. The infection starts by ingesting food or water that has been contaminated with the bacterium Vibrio Cholera. From a few hours to five days after exposure to the bacterium, the vomiting and diarrhea begin. The bacterium produces a toxin that speeds the passage of fluid from the blood stream into the intestines. More than a pint of fluid is lost every hour. If the fluid is not replaced, in a few hours the patient will die. Once the diarrhea and vomiting begins that is when the infection begins. People say the disease spreads through the continents of Asia, Africa, and the Mediterranean and Gulf Coast of North America and South America. The disease Cholera is very rare now.

    Extractions: Diseases A-Z Cholera On this page Cholera is an acute, diarrheal illness caused by infection of the intestine with the bacterium Vibrio cholerae . The infection is often mild or without symptoms, but sometimes it can be severe. Approximately one in 20 infected persons has severe disease characterized by profuse watery diarrhea, vomiting, and leg cramps. In these persons, rapid loss of body fluids leads to dehydration and shock. Without treatment, death can occur within hours. Also see: Vibrio infection More info/links The CDC fact sheet answers some common questions about cholera. Disease reporting Health care providers and clinical laboratories are required by law to report cases and suspect cases of cholera to local health departments within 24 hours of identification. On weekends and holidays, call 503/731-4030 to reach the state health department doctor on call.

About a dozen cases have so far been reported by doctors in Basra and the World Health Organization (WHO) says it expects many more cases in the general community have gone unreported. "An outbreak of cholera, affecting probably several hundreds of people, is occurring," warned Fadela Chaib of the U.N. agency, which dispatched a team to the city this week. No deaths have been reported so far but health officials said they feared the problem is already reaching epidemic proportions. "If we're seeing 17 confirmed cases, you can expect 10 times more within the larger population," Dr. Denis Coulombier, an epidemiologist with WHO told The Associated Press.

Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report. Cholera is an acute infectious disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, which lives and multiples (colonizes) in the small intestine but does not destroy or invade the intestinal tissue (noninvasive). The major symptom of cholera is massive watery diarrhea that occurs because of a toxin secreted by the bacteria that stimulates the cells of the small intestine to secrete fluid. There are several strains of V. cholerae and the severity of the disease is based on the particular infectious strain.
