Abstract
Cholera is still with us! The foodborne/waterborne dis ease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae continues
to pose a significant threat to the safety of public health glob ally (Mohammed et al., 2024). Despite various medical inter ventions such as the use of oral cholera vaccines (OCVs)
(Zeitoun et al., 2024), hundreds of thousands of lives are lost
annually worldwide to this virulent disease. Cholera mostly
affects vulnerable populations in regions with inadequate
access to clean water and sanitation (Bose et al., 2024).
Recent outbreaks in parts of Asia (Nasr et al., 2024),
Africa (Taty et al., 2024), and the Caribbean underscore
the ongoing risk and the urgent need for comprehensive
strategies to control its spread (Siamalube and Ehinmitan,
2024). This commentary aims to unravel the challenges
caused by V. cholerae by exploring the global cholera inci dences and the multifaceted approaches required to combat
this persistent pathogen
