Cholera in Cuba

The first outbreak of cholera in over a century has been reported by the Cuban Ministry of Public Health. The risk to travellers is low, but they should be aware that Cholera can be spread via food being prepared by a person who is ill with the disease.

Travellers are advised to take care with food and water, and to ensure they eat seafood such as crabs and crayfish only when it has been cooked through and is thoroughly hot.
