How can we control the disease Cholera

Control: Individuals infected  with cholera require oral rehydration therapy  with NaCl plus sucrose, sodium bicarbonate and potassium chloride to  stimulate water uptake by the intestine. The antibiotics of choice are a  tetracycline or aproflaxin. The most reliable control methods are based on  proper sanitation, especially of water  supplies. The mortality rate without  treatment is often over  50%. Medical treatment to prevent dehydration  prevents all complications.
