Looking over my partner's research is interesting. We share similar opinions on Cholera. If it's fatal then why is it ignored? What can be done to prevent Cholera in these nations? Is there a cheap alternative? All these questions come to mind when there are Cholera outbreaks every year in these undeveloped nations. There were over 10,000 deaths in Africa alone, in the year 1991. Cholera can be taken care of, but without the proper medical care, Cholera can be fatal.
Furthermore, my partners and I tend to look at Africa as victim of Cholera. Cholera outbreaks are still common in Africa. Because of unsanitary conditions and a weak medical system, Africa has had many Cholera outbreaks. In conclusion, I think that it would be a good idea to focus on Africa for this project.

I think education is an important factor. Most of the people infected have no idea that they have cholera.
Telling people about cholera and the dangers/symptoms is the first step in raising awareness. Africa seems like a good place to focus this our topic in as it is the country with the highest outbreaks.
