History of Cholera

What is cholera? How and where did it start? How did and does it spread? There is a lack of agreement about the early history of cholera. Confusion arose because it was difficult to define cholera precisely (which has a broad clinical spectrum) and to distinguish it from many other diseases associated with diarrhea and vomiting.
