    Cholera is the process of contaminating water sources and food with the help of other people's vomit and excreta, and then spreading again. Cholera is very prone to widespread outbreaks. In China, cholera is classified as a Class A infectious disease, and there are two types of plague and cholera that are also listed as Class A infectious diseases.

    It can be seen that the two infectious diseases are terrible.

    The main risk factors for infection disorder include poor sanitation, unclean drinking water, and poverty. The cholera outbreak in Ethiopia is due to poor local sanitation, which has been eradicated in developed countries or many developing countries. The cause of cholera infection is an acute diarrheal disease caused by infection of the small intestine in some pigs that cause Vibrio cholerae.

    The typical symptom is severe watery diarrhea for several consecutive days, which may be accompanied by vomiting and muscle twitching. Severe diarrhoea caused by cholera can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Illness usually occurs immediately after exposure to the pathogen.

    If there is no access to acceptance**, the mortality rate can be as high as 50%.

    Moreover, the cholera outbreak in Ethiopia is mainly concentrated in the capital Addis Ababa and other areas, and the outbreak of such a disease in the capital of one country can be imagined. Cholera is mainly transmitted in the following ways,1Waterborne.

    Water transmission plays a major role in transmission, and if it is often transmitted through water, it will show an explosive epidemic.

    2.Foodborne transmission.

    Food chaos is second only to water, and is the most important route of transmission in areas where safe drinking water is already available.

    3.Life-to-life transmission.

    Cholera can also occur in direct contact with a sick person or carrier, or in contact with items contaminated with the virus.

    4.Vector insect transmission.

    When cholera is endemic, flies can carry bacteria, and some people have detected germs from flies caught on cholera-plagued ships and in endemic areas. All in all, it is generally difficult to spread cholera on a large scale in a hygienic environment.

    First of all, Ethiopia is located in Africa, a rich land that has endured hundreds of years of oppression, enslavement and plunder by European colonizers, who gained a huge amount of wealth, but they did not bring the same knowledge to the land and to the people here. On the contrary, this group of colonists brought poverty, backwardness and ignorance to the land.

    Cholera infection is manifested in severe diarrhea, dehydration, loss of tendon reflexes, decreased blood pressure, confusion, etc., and even in severe cases, it will go into shock.

    01. Cholera outbreaks broke out in many places in Ethiopia

    There was no good news from the beginning of 2020, for example, when the new crown virus epidemic in our country was not completely controlled, there was an outbreak of locusts in Africa, and there was an infectious disease of unknown cause in Nigeria, and cholera outbreaks in many places in Ethiopia, which made people want to start 2020 again, or skip 2020, there are too many disasters.

    The level of medical and health care in Canada is not high, and there is an extreme shortage of medicines, so it is estimated that there is no way to effectively control the cholera epidemic in a short period of time. The point is that the situation in some parts of Ethiopia is not optimistic, and it is easy for riots to break out, which also poses a certain challenge to the cholera epidemic, and the death toll is expected to rise.

    02. Disease manifestations of cholera infection

    So what usually happens when you get cholera? The first thing to know is that cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. After Vibrio cholerae invades the human body, it continues to produce new Vibrio cholerae toxins, and when the number is large, the body's immune system has no way to take them, and the toxin slowly kills the body's immune system.

    This toxin likes to stay in the small intestine very much, which will cause the small intestine to secrete a large amount of intestinal fluid, and the intestinal fluid exceeds the capacity of the small intestine. People will have severe diarrhea and vomiting, dehydration, loss of tendon reflexes, blood pressure drops, confusion, etc., and even in severe cases, they will go into shock directly, so don't underestimate this disease.

    To sum up, from the perspective of the clinical manifestations of cholera infection, the harm to the human body is very, and if it is serious, it will go directly to see Lord Yama.

    Cholera is mainly transmitted by water and food. Cholera bacteria are present in contaminated water, seafood and fruits, and are found in large amounts in the feces of patients and the food they have used. Therefore, in order to prevent the outbreak of cholera, you must remember not to drink raw water, which may contain a large number of germs and some sediment, and must be boiled at a temperature of 100 degrees before drinking water, which can kill the bacteria contained in the raw water.

    Also do not eat spoiled food, because rotten food contains a large number of enzymes, which can also cause lesions in the body, preventing the production of cholera germs in the body, which can cause serious effects on the body. Don't eat raw seafood, because the environment in which seafood lives is not familiar to us, and the water in it has become very dirty because it has not been replaced all year round, and there are many parasitic bacteria in it, so the existence of cholera bacteria cannot be ruled out. Especially in cholera-endemic areas, where seafood is very dangerous, it must be sterilized before eating, and try not to touch it directly with your hands to avoid being infected with the cholera virus.

    Illness comes from the mouth, so we need to disinfect anything before eating it so that bacteria don't get into our body. In terms of hygiene, it is also necessary to do a good job of protection, and to form the habit of washing hands before and after meals. It is best to install a water purifier in the home with conditions, and after receiving the tap water at home, purify it again through the water purifier, which can also discharge a lot of bacteria and escort our lives.

    In life, you should also exercise more and maintain a good physical fitness, which can also improve your ability to resist the virus. Don't panic after getting sick, as long as you seek medical attention in time, you can get out of danger. Wear a mask when you go out to avoid strangers infecting you.

    Cholera outbreaks can occur due to a number of causes, such as inadequate sewage treatment and poor medical care, which can be effectively controlled at the outset of the disease.

    Ethiopia is a poor country in northeast Africa, and people can't even solve their own food and clothing problems, so their own health protection awareness is very poor, coupled with the limitation of education level, it is difficult to pay attention to some high-risk factors that can easily cause diseases.

    For example, when they drink water, they are likely to drink directly from the river, and you never know what the people in the river have done to the water that flows in front of their door, such as pouring household garbage, or urinating or stool, and the people who are located under the river directly quote this untreated sewage is naturally prone to disease. Cholera, an infectious disease that spreads easily through water, occurs at this time.

    One of the worst cholera outbreaks in history began in India. Cholera is a water-borne disease, and the Ganges River is the most sacred river in the eyes of Indians, so whenever someone dies in the family, Indian people often choose to put the body of the old man into the Ganges.

    The main symptom of cholera is diarrhea, due to the limitation of medical level, the local clinic or hospital will not pay much attention to the patients with diarrhea, not only for the treatment of patients is not thorough, but also difficult to think that a certain area of water is polluted, can not control the source of pollution in time, resulting in batches of patients, due to drinking local unclean water and causing diseases, and eventually causing the tragic situation caused by cholera outbreak.
