@HeavenlyPossum Said shortness was far more likely due to disease than any form of intent-based violence.

Westerners got really used fast to not dying of #cholera, #tuberculosis or even just #influenza (those fevers without medication aren't just unpleasant). To the point they forgot that these diseases were killing in significant numbers all the way up to the middle of the 20th century (they never actually stopped, direct killing or indirect via long-term damage).

Climate change may be fueling a global surge in cholera outbreaks.

Grist reports: "The bacteria behind one of history’s deadliest diseases is thriving again due to extreme weather."

South Africa has experienced outbreaks of #cholera since January. The worst was in May in Hammanskraal, north of Pretoria, where nearly 30 people died.

Cholera is a bacterial disease which spreads via the faecal-oral route mostly through ingestion of contaminated food and water.

It causes severe diarrhoea and dehydration, and in extreme cases death.

Oral cholera #vaccines may be considered to contain ongoing outbreaks and to limit the spread.

Russia wants to cover up the outbreaks of #infectious #diseases in #Kherson caused by their #destruction of #Kakhovka #dam.

3 things are catching up with #terrorist invader Russia at once:

1. Poor logistics means no bottled water

2. Blowing the damn contaminated everything

3. Left bank of Dnipro harder hit than the right

Adds up to a #cholera outbreak among Russian troops in #Kherson.

Hey don't worry everyone, SA government dept is on the case!

15 people have died thus far in a #cholera outbreak in Hammanskraal, North of the city of Tshwane in South Africa that is being blamed on a failing water treatment plant (https://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/gauteng/timeline-hammanskraal-water-crisis-is-not-new-it-is-16-years-in-the-making-efe086e2-61df-4d2a-9a04-334eaf4ad180).
