Description
Summary:Cholera has been regarded as one of the major public health concerns of infectious origin in the low- and middle-income nations. It is quite encouraging to know that a decline of almost 60% was reported in the incidence of the cases in the year 2018, with a significant reduction in the number of cases in the high endemic nations.

In conclusion, despite the significant gains accomplished in the battle against the prevention and control of the disease, a lot needs to be done and this will essentially require a multisectoral and a concerted approach.
