Cholera spreads so fast because it usually spreads by contaminated water. So it affects many people in one stroke. Secondly each patient produce very large amount of bacteria culture in the form of loose motion. Thirdly the patients tend to run away in their incubation period, taking with them the disease at some distant place. This creates the distant and independent focus, making it difficult for the health system to manage the epidemics.
