Cholera is spreading fast, yet it can be stopped. Why haven't we consigned it to history? | Hakainde Hichilema and Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus

omg what's going on with cholera 🤯 like how is it still a thing? i know africa has been dealing with a lot but 6k+ deaths already this year is crazy. and it's not just the vaccine thing, it's all about access to clean water and proper sanitation...like come on guys we've had these solutions for ages 🤦‍♀️. zambia partnering with china to make more vaccines is cool i guess but what's the point if they're not investing in actual safe drinking water infrastructure?
 
🤦‍♂️ honestly though how many times do we have to relive this? Cholera's like the ultimate reminder that basic human needs are still being ignored in far too many places 🌎. It's not exactly rocket science, but apparently ensuring access to clean water and proper waste management is a bridge too far for some countries 💦. And let's be real, vaccines are available, but investment in production is always a hot mess 🤯. Zambia's new vaccine facility is a step in the right direction, but it's like we're waiting for someone else to fix our own problems 🙄. Can't we just prioritize public health and safe living conditions already? It's not that hard, folks! 💪
 
🤕 I mean, what's going on with our world right now? I remember when I was a kid, my grandma used to tell me stories about how cholera outbreaks were super rare back in the day... like, 1866! Can you believe it? 😂 Now it's spreading all over Africa and claiming thousands of lives. It just doesn't seem fair that some people still don't have access to clean water and sanitation.

And vaccines, oh man, I heard we've been around those for like, forever now. Since the 19th century! How come they can't just make more? 🤷‍♀️ It's not like it's rocket science or anything. But no, governments are all like "oh, we'll just deal with it" and then people suffer.

I do love that Zambia is trying to partner with China for a vaccine production facility though! That's like, progress right? 💪 We need more of those kind of collaborations to get this under control.

You know what they say, if only everyone had access to clean water and proper waste management... cholera would be a thing of the past. I mean, it's not that hard, folks! 🤦‍♀️
 
I'm really worried about cholera right now 🤕. It's crazy how it still exists in 2025, with thousands of people dying every year. The fact that it thrives in areas with poverty and inequality is heartbreaking. We need to do more to ensure everyone has access to safe water and sanitation. Vaccines are the answer, but production is a major issue 🤦‍♂️. It's like we're playing catch-up every time there's an outbreak. Zambia's move to start producing its own vaccines is a good step forward, but we need more investment in this area too 💸. The WHO and partners are doing their best, but they need more support from governments to tackle this crisis effectively. We can't just sit back and wait for things to get worse – we need to take action now 🚨💪
 
omg this is so crazy how cholera is still a thing in 2025 🤯 i mean we have vaccines available since like ever but it feels like no one's doing enough to help out the ppl affected by poverty & conflict... clean drinking water & proper waste management should be like basic human rights you know? 🚽💧 and it's so sad that ppl are still dying from something that can be prevented with a little bit of effort 💔
 
🚨🤢 cholera's back and it's getting out of hand 🌎💧 so many countries are struggling with safe water and sanitation and it's a total disaster 💔 we need more investment in vaccine production and distribution ASAP ⏰ and also in building those infrastructure projects that'll make all the difference 💪 Zambia's partnership with China is a great start 👍 but we need to see this happen on a bigger scale 🌟
