Cholera bacteria is digested by your digestive juices in your stomach. Cholera bacteria escape this defence mechanism by their number. About 100 millions bacteria are required to infect the healthy adult. One glassful of water can give you this much dose of bacteria. In hot summer, you are tempted to drink the water regardless of safety. When you have been taking some drugs like proton pump inhibitors, the dose of bacteria may be very less to infect you.
