Abstract
Cholera rarely occurs in children under 2 years of age. We describe diarrhea due to Vibrio cholerae 0139 Bengal, the newly described etiologic agent of cholera in a 4-day-old breast-fed baby. However, the diarrhea was mild and was successfully treated with rehydration therapy and erythromycin.Entities:
