You can easily prevent cholera by very simple precautions. Cholera spreads by fecal oral transmission. So you need to drink safe water. You have to use the packed mineral water. Else you have to drink boiled and cooled water. Alternately you can add the chlorine drops to clean drinking water in some what more concentration. Wait for about one hour for chlorine to kill the bacteria and then consume the water. You must eat the freshly cooked food. You have to take total precautions to prevent the flies from contaminating your food. Alternately you can eat the packed dry food like biscuits and hot tea, milk or coffee. You must wash your hands with safe (hyper-chlorinated) water and soap before you eat the food.
