Da sich das Thema Schweinegrippe etwas überholt hatte, stattdessen aber (zum Glück) keine Pandemien in Sicht sind und zudem oft lokale oder regionale Seuchenproblematiken gepostet werden, habe ich den Thread mal umbenannt.

Zitat:Cuba confirms 51 cholera cases in Havana
Cuba's health ministry has confirmed a cholera outbreak in Havana with 51 people infected - the biggest incidence of the disease there in decades. An official statement said health workers had detected an increase in "acute diarrhoea" in some districts, which has been established as cholera.The source has been identified as a foodseller who caught cholera during a previous outbreak in eastern Cuba.
Doctors have been going house to house in Havana areas, checking for symptoms.
The official confirmation follows several days of speculation about an upsurge in diarrhoea in the capital, where the BBC understands a 46-year-old man died of suspected cholera earlier this month.
