#Cholera is a waterborne disease, with a higher risk of spread when there is poor sanitation and disruption of clean water supply.

Practice and ensure the use of safe water in your homes and communities.

UNCLEAN WATER, unwashed hands, and uncovered food are some of the ways #Cholera germs are spread.

Ensure your water is safe before use:
➡️BOIL water before drinking
➡️USE water from safe sources
➡️STORE water in properly coverer containers
➡️STOP open defecation
