A short animated film produced by the Global Health Media Project globalhealthmedia.org in collaboration with Yoni Goodman http This film makes visible the invisible cholera germs as a young boy shows how to help the sick and guides his village in preventing the spread of cholera. The film shows how to make the basic homemade oral rehydration solution using sugar, salt , and safe water as these items were felt to be most widely available. However, a solution prepared with a readymade ORS packet is the first choice if supplies are available.

What if someone bottled the water that millions in developing countries drink every day and offered it on the streets of New York? For just a buck, during World Water Week (March 22-29), New Yorkers in the Union Square Park area were able to enjoy the benefits of DIRTY WATER. It was available in a wide variety of choices like MALARIA, CHOLERA or even TYPHOID DIRTY WATER -- and currently has 900 million consumers. Over 4200 children die of water related diseases every day and millions of people around the world lack access to clean water resources. New Yorkers were startled to find YELLOW FEVER or HEPATITIS DIRTY WATER bottles. They looked at the vending machine in disgust. Though no one drank Dirty Water,many did donate to the cause. This idea of "selling" dirty water was inspired by UNICEF's promise that every dollar donated would provide safe drinking water to 40 children for a day. This eye-opening DIRTY WATER initiative from Casanova Pendrill New York, goes beyond collecting funds for UNICEF in a unique active street effort. The goal was to shock the media and the public with this alarming issue. The campaign is currently active since people can continue donating online at tapproject.org or via text message. Text TAP or AGUA to UNICEF (864233) to make a $5 donation. This effort is part of a much bigger pro-bono Spanish/English campaign that Casanova Pendrill executed within UNICEF´s Tapproject.org.

In April 2012, Partners In Health began vaccinating 50000 Haitians, providing them with protection against cholera that will last for up to three years. Getting to this point wasn't easy. Critics said a cholera vaccination wouldn't work in Haiti. But, at Partners In Health, we're committed to doing whatever it takes to save lives -- even if it's not easy and even if the critics doubt us. We will work tirelessly to prevent senseless deaths. As always, we worked with the national government to get this project off the ground. And the vaccine project is now moving forward before the worst of the rainy season -- and the almost inevitable spike in cases of cholera. With your continuing support, we'll build a movement to use the vaccine across Haiti -- and make investments in water and sanitation -- to put an end to the world's worst cholera epidemic.

Epidemics in Western Society Since 1600 (HIST 234) Asiatic cholera was the most dreaded disease of the nineteenth century. While its demographic impact could not compare to that of the bubonic plague, it nonetheless held a tremendous purchase on the European social imagination. One reason for the intense fear provoked by the disease was its symptoms: not only did cholera exact a degrading and painful toll on the human body, it also struck suddenly, and was capable of reducing the seemingly healthy in a period of hours. A second major reason for the disease's significance was its overwhelming predilection for the poor: transmitted through the oral ingestion of fecal matter, cholera was intimately associated with poor diets and unsanitary living conditions. This correspondence qualifies it as an archetypical disease of poverty, and implicated cholera in the larger nineteenth-century political anxiety over the "social question." 00:00 - Chapter 1.

Several scientific studies point to a UN base in Haiti as the place where cholera was introduced into the country in October 2010. A UN-commissioned scientist has also said that the world body itself is most likely to blame for the outbreak. The UN has never accepted responsibility for the cholera epidemic, even though its own investigation found the outbreak stemmed from contamination in a river,right next to its own base, which was not disposing of sewage properly. The investigation found that Haiti's lack of effective water treatment facilities, made worse by a devastating earthquake, led to the rapid spread of the disease, which has killed about 7000 people in the country.

Ccc-cholera, ccc-cholera, la la, la la, la la, la la, la la lah. David McGahan's World was a series of sketches from the popular Australian 1990's sketch comedy show, Full Frontal. The sketches were a parody of your typical nature documentary, and featured a mix of Shaun Micallef's regular nonsensical and eccentric humour, mixed with some crazy set designs. Almost every single mockumentary shown on the sketch ended with a video of two antelopes, frequently referred to by David as 'goat creatures'. en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org. + Informações

Epidemics in Western Society Since 1600 (HIST 234) Professor Snowden describes the historical detective work that went into the research and writing of Naples in the Time of Cholera, his study of the 1884 and 1911 epidemics of Asiatic cholera that struck Italy. The latter epidemic is of particular interest, because the official historiography of the disease has long confined its outbreaks in Western Europe to the nineteenth century. Through his investigation, Snowden discovered that there was in fact an epidemic on Italian shores in 1911, and that its absence from subsequent histories was the result of concerted efforts of concealment on the part of Italian and US authorities. The story of this successful concealment sheds light not only on the history of Asiatic cholera in the early twentieth century, but also on more recent public health campaigns that have involved concealment, such as China's response to the 2002 SARS epidemic. 00:00 - Chapter 1.
