Cholera is an infectious disease that causes severe watery diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration and even death if untreated. It is caused by eating food or drinking water contaminated with a bacterium called Vibrio cholerae. ... However, cholera outbreaks are still a serious problem in other parts of the world.

The disease has infected a few people, spread out over a large distance because Cholera can't suddenly spread, it infects few people and then spreads rapidly.
