Text of Note

This book has been created for patients who have decided to make education and research an integral part of the treatment process. Although it also gives information useful to doctors, caregivers and other health professionals, it tells patients where and how to look for information covering virtually all topics related to cholera (also Asiatic Cholera; Cholera gravis; Epidemic Cholera; Rice water diarrhea; V. cholera; Vibrio), from the essentials to the most advanced areas of research. The title of this book includes the word official. This reflects the fact that the sourcebook draws from pub.
