Cholera occurs when adequate public health measures have broken down. Specifically, this happens when populated areas experience sewage overflow, in times of heavy rains. Coliform bacteria, from feces, spread throughout the water supply, and diarrrheal disease can be difficult to treat when an epidemic breaks out. Thus, many people often die during severe cholera outbreaks.
