There is currently a cholera outbreak in Ghana with increasing cases as the days go by. Cholera is an infection of the small intestine caused by a bacterium known as vibrio cholerae. Symptoms of this condition include watery diarrhoea, vomiting and weakness. Transmission occurs primarily by drinking water or eating food that has been contaminated by the faeces of an infected person including those infected but with no apparent symptoms.
