No Wonder Men are Only After Japanese Women! I’m about 172 cm (5 ft 8 in). That’s taller than the average Japanese woman (158 cm / 5 ft 2 in), though. As I’m slim, I don’t have any issues squeezing myself into Japanese clothes, but most of the time they’re too short! Trousers, leggings and long sleeve shirts are always an issue. However, skirts and tops without long sleeves are perfect.

Cholera Cholera remains a global threat to public health and an indicator of inequity and lack of social development. Researchers have estimated that every year, there are roughly 1.3 to 4.0 million cases, and 21 000 to 143 000 deaths worldwide due to cholera (1). Symptoms. Cholera is an extremely virulent disease that can cause severe acute watery diarrhoea. It takes between 12 hours and 5 days for a person to show symptoms after ingesting contaminated food or water (2). Cholera affects both children and adults and can kill within hours if untreated. Most people infected with V. cholerae do not develop any symptoms, although the bacteria are present in their faeces for 1-10 days after infection and are shed back into the environment, potentially infecting other people.

Cholera Medication Antimicrobial therapy for cholera is an adjunct to fluid therapy and is not an essential therapeutic component. However, an effective antibiotic can reduce the volume of diarrhea in patients with severe cholera and shorten the period during which Vibrio cholerae O1 is excreted. In addition, it usually stops the diarrhea within 48 hours, thus shortening the period of hospitalization. No other drugs besides antibiotics should be used in the treatment of cholera. The choice of antibiotics is determined by the susceptibility patterns of the local strains of V cholerae O1 or O139. If antimicrobial therapy is to be initiated, it should be given when the patient is first seen and cholera is suspected.
