Cholera is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It infects the small intestine. Cholera is still active throughout the world. Estimates from 2010 say that between three- and five million people get cholera every year, and 58,000–130,000 people die from the disease every year.[1]
Contents
Big picture
Time period | Key developments |
---|---|
5th century BC | Cholera probably originates in the Indian subcontinent, where almost all of the cholera pandemics would later originate.[2] |
1816–1923 | The first six cholera pandemics happen in an almost continuous period of time. Mostly as a result of increased commerce, but also migration and pilgrimage.[3] |
1879–1883 | Major scientific breakthroughs happen: the first immunization by Pasteur, the first vaccine against cholera, and the identification of the bacterium vibrio cholerae by Filippo Pacini and Robert Koch. |
1945–1948 | Formation of the United Nations and World Health Organization (WHO). |
1961 onwards | The seventh cholera pandemic breaks out, after a long hiatus. Oral rehydration therapy is introduced in the late 70s.[4] |
Present times | The seventh cholera pandemic continues today at a much smaller scale with outbreaks across the developing world. Epidemics occur after war, civil unrest, or natural disasters when water and food supplies become contaminated with vibrio cholerae in areas with crowded living conditions and poor sanitation.[5] |
Full timeline
Year/Period | Event type | Event | Present-day geographic location |
---|---|---|---|
460–377 BCE | Science development | Hippocrates is the first to mention the term cholera in his writings, although the exact disease he refers to is unknown.[6][7] | Greece |
1563 | Medical development | Cholera is first recorded in a medical report.[8] | India |
1817–1824 | Epidemic | The first cholera pandemic begins near Calcutta, reaching most of Asia. It is thought to have killed over 100,000 people.[9] | India, Thailand, Philippines, Java, Oman, China, Japan, Persian Gulf, Iraq, Syria, Transcaucasia, Astrakhan (Russia), Zanzibar, and Mauritius. |
1819 | Epidemic | Cholera epidemic reaches the island of Java from Bengal.[10] | Indonesia |
1848 | The Public Health Act 1848 establishes the first local boards of health in England and Wales. The boards would ensure proper drainage in homes and dependable water supplies.[11] | England and Wales | |
1829–1851 | Epidemic | The second cholera pandemic, known as the Asiatic Cholera Pandemic, arguably starts along the Ganges river. It is the first to reach Europe and North America. Like in the first one, fatalities reach six figures.[9] | India, western and eastern Asia, Europe, Americas. |
1830-1831 | Epidemic | Cholera epidemic across Europe gives rise to the Cholera Riots in Russia[12] and England.[13] | Europe |
1831 | Scientific development | Scottish physician William Brooke O'Shaughnessy notices that the composition for the stool water in cholera ptients is very similar to that of their blood plasma. These values are found close to those of normal controls, except that the patients have markedly reduced water content. From this data, O'Shaughnessy suggests that replacing water and salt would be beneficial to them.[14] | Great Britain |
1831 | Publication | J.R. Lichtenstadt publishes Die asiatische Cholera in Russland in den Jahren 1830 und 1831.[15] | Germany |
1831 | Medical development (treatment) | O'Shaughnessy publishes paper describing the need for administering salts and water to cholera victims, an idea that is put into practice by Thomas Latta soon thereafter.[16] | |
1832 | Medical development (treatment) | Medical pioneer Thomas Latta develops the first intravenous saline drip.[17] | Scotland (Leith) |
1832 | Epidemic | Cholera claims 6536 victims in London and 20,000 in Paris (out of a population of 650,000), and is responsible for about 100000 deaths in France as a whole. The epidemic reaches Russia, Quebec, Ontario and New York in the same year. In Portugal, cholera is brought to Oporto in on the boats that carry troops from Ostend to help the Liberal army during the civil war. From Oporto, cholera spreads throughout the country, and more than 40000 people perish. It is calculated that cholera killed more people than the war itself.[18] | Europe, North America |

1856–1857 | Epidemic | Cholera is recorded in several parts of Central America and Guyana.[23] | Central America, South America |
1863–1875 | Epidemic | The fourth cholera pandemic starts again in the Ganges delta.[9] | Asia, Middle East, Russia, Europe, Africa and North America |
1865 | Epidemic | Fourth cholera pandemic: The Mecca pilgrimage becomes the scene of a major epidemic. It is calculated that 30000 deaths occur out of 90000 pilgrims.[23] | Saudi Arabia (Mecca) |
1865–1866 | Epidemic | Fourth cholera pandemic: Cholera arrives again to the United States. Deplorable sanitary conditions make favorable for the spread of the disease.[23] | United States |

1885 | Medical development (drug) | Spanish physician Jaume Ferran i Clua develops a cholera vaccine, which is the first to immunize humans against a bacterial disease. Ferrán vaccinates about 50,000 people in Valencia during a cholera epidemic.[18][28] | Spain |

1951–1959 | Scientific development | Indian pathologist Sambhu Nath De discovers that cholera is caused by a potent exotoxin (cholera toxin) affecting intestinal permeability.

These works are considered milestones in the history of the fight against cholera.[4] | |

1961–present | Epidemic | The seventh cholera pandemic, starting in Indonesia, continues today at a much smaller scale.[9] | Asia, Africa, Americas, Europe, Oceania |
1967 | Medical development (drug) | Doxycycline is introduced as antibiotic. It is proved to be an effective treatment for cholera.[36][35] | |

1971–2012 | Epidemic | Seventh cholera pandemic: cholera is first reported in Cameroon in 1971. In the period between 2000 and 2012, 43474 cholera cases are reported: 1748 are fatal (mean annual case fatality ratio of 7.9%), with an attack rate of 17.9 reported cases per 100000 inhabitants per year.[39] | Cameroon |
1974 | Scientific development | Researchers show that more than 108 vibrio cholerae cells are required to induce infection and diarrhoea.[32] | |
1976 | Scientific development | Researchers report that a combination of vibrio cholerae O1 antigens such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and cholera toxin (CT) or choleragenoid (now termed Cholera Toxin B or CTB) induces more than 100-fold greater protection of rabbits against a challenge with live vibrios than does vaccination with either of the two antigens alone.[40] | |
1979 | Medical development (treatment) | Oral rehydration therapy (ORT) is introduced as a technique of fluid replacement used to prevent or treat dehydration especially due to diarrhea. ORT rapidly becomes the cornerstone of programmes for the control of diarrhoeal diseases. Oral rehydration therapy dramatically would brought down the cholera case fatality rate from 30% in 1980 to around 3.6% in 2000.[4][41] | |
1984 | Medical development (drug) | United States FDA approves serotonin antagonist ondansetron. Ondansetron diminishes cholera toxin-evoked secretion.[42][43] | United States |

1992–1993 | Epidemic | New strain of cholera, new strain of cholera, Vibrio cholerae serogroup O139 Bengal emerges and causes outbreaks in Bangladesh and India. Disease from this strain becomes endemic in at least 11 countries.[5] | |
1994 | Epidemic | Seventh cholera pandemic: cholera cases are notified from 94 countries, the highest ever number of countries in one year.[32] | |
1998 | Scientific Development | Multilocus sequence typing analysis (MLST) is first described. MLST has better discriminatory ability for typing vibrio cholerae than does pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and provides a measure of phylogenetic relatedness.[50][31] | |
