The content on this page is forked from the English Wikipedia page entitled "Timeline of cholera". The original page still exists at Timeline of cholera. The original content was released under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA), so this page inherits this license.

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]

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

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

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
1832 Publication G.E. Winslow publishes Essay on the Nature, Symptoms and Treatment of Asiatic Cholera, a standard text on cholera from the pre-bacterial era.[15]
1847 Publication E.A. Parkes publishes Researches into the Pathology and Treatment of the Asiatic or Algide Cholera, a standard text expressing pre-bacteriological views.[15] United Kingdom
1851–1938 Organization The International Sanitary Conferences, largely inspired by the cholera pandemics, are held with the objective to standardize international quarantine regulations against the spread of cholera and other diseases.[19] Paris, Constantinople, Vienna, Washington, Rome, Venice, Dresden
1852–1860 Epidemic The third cholera pandemic starts along the Ganges delta. Millions are infected in Russia. Death toll reaches one million.[9] Asia, Europe, Africa and North America
1853 Epidemic Third cholera pandemic: the Copenhagen cholera outbreak kills almost 5000 people in less than three months.[20] Denmark
1854 Scientific development Italian anatomist Filippo Pacini publishes his paper "Microscopical observations and pathological deductions on cholera" in which he describes his discovery of micro-organisms which he names Vibrio, and its relation to cholera. Pacini becomes the first to isolate the cholera bacterium vibrio cholerae.[21][22] Italy
1854 Epidemic Cholera epidemic reaches China, Japan; and Mauritius, where four outbreaks occur until 1862.[23] In London, Broad Street cholera outbreak kills at least 500 people.[24] China, Japan, Mauritius, England
1854 Scientific development First demonstration by John Snow, during an epidemic in London, that the transmission of cholera is significantly reduced when uncontaminated water is provided to the population.[5][8] England
1854 Organization Cholera Hospital is established. It built to treat cholera patients who are denied admittance to City Hospital in Manhattan during a cholera epidemics in the same year.[25][26] United States (New York City)
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
1892 Medical development (drug) Russian bacteriologist Waldemar Haffkine, working at Pasteur Institute, announces a new cholera vaccine.[29][30]
1892 Scientific development German chemist Max Josef von Pettenkofer tests on himself a dose of the dangerous Vibrio cholera provided by Robert Koch.[15]

Nath De also demonstrates that bacteria-free culture filtrates of vibrio cholerae are enterotoxic. Sambu Nath De also develops a reproducible animal model for the disease. These works are considered milestones in the history of the fight against cholera.[4]

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
1984 Epidemic Seventh cholera pandemic: cholera epidemic reaches Mali. 1793 cases and 406 deaths are reported.[44] Mali
1986 Medical development (drug) United States FDA approves antibacterial norfloxacin. It is proved to be effective for the treatment of cholera.[45] United States
1986 Scientific development Molecular technique for bacterial identification ribotyping begins. It would be used for characterizing cholera strains.[46][31]
1990 (circa) Scientific development Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis technique is first described. It is used to subtype bacterial strains. PFGE would show to be useful for the identification of spread of specific clones in many cholera outbreak investigations.[47][31]
1990 (circa) Scientific development Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis is first described. RAPD would be used for characterizing representative strains of vibrio cholerae.[48][31]
1991 MEdical development (drug) Oral cholera vaccine Dukoral is introduced. It is manufactured by Crucell.[49] Netherlands
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]
2001 Medical development (drug) United States FDA approves serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist granisetron. Granisetron markedly diminishes cholera toxin-evoked secretion.[42][43] United States
2005 Scientific development Small molecule virstatin is found to inhibit virulence expression in vibrio cholerae.[51][52][53] United States
2007 Medical development (drug) Researchers from the University of Tokyo develop a type of rice that carries the cholera vaccine.[54][55] Japan
2007 Epidemic Iraq cholera outbreak. 4667 cases reported. The median age of the cases is 11 years.[56] Iraq
2008 Epidemic Zimbabwean cholera outbreak. 98741 cases and 4293 deaths reported.[57][58] Zimbabwe, Botswana, Mozambique, South Africa and Zambia.
2009 Epidemic The World Health Organization reports more than 220,000 cases of cholera and almost 5,000 deaths worldwide.[59]
2009 Medical development (drug) Oral cholera vaccine Shanchol is introduced. It contains killed whole cells of vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139. Shanchol is manufactured by Shantha Biotechnics.[49][60] India
2009 Epidemic Papua New Guinea cholera outbreak results in over 15000 cases and more than 500 deaths.[61] Papua New Guinea
2010–present Epidemic Haiti cholera outbreak kills over 9,500 people across four countries.[62] Haiti, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Mexico, Venezuela and Florida (U.S.)
2011 Scientific development Multi-virulence locus sequencing typing technique is first described. MVLST would be used for determining the genetic variation and relatedness of vibrio cholerae strains of different zerogroups.[63][31]
2012 Epidemic Sierra Leonean cholera outbreak. At least 392 people are reportedly killed and more than 25,000 others are infected.[64][65] Sierra Leone, Guinea
2014–2015 Epidemic Cholera outbreak in Africa. 1,475 reported deaths,[66] 84,675 reported cases.[66] Ghana, Nigeria, Niger, Togo, Benin, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ivory Coast, Chad, Liberia, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea
2015 Medical development (drug) Oral cholera vaccine Euvichol is introduced. Euvichol is manufactured by EuBiologics.[49] South Korea
2016 Medical development (drug) United States FDA approves Vaxchora for the prevention of cholera.[67] United States
