Haiti's cholera part of old pandemic, US CDC says
None
The cholera epidemic that has killed 1,110 people and sickened thousands more in Haiti is part of a 49-year-old global pandemic and was likely brought to the Caribbean country by a single infected person, scientists said on Thursday.
Haiti's epidemic could easily worsen despite efforts to control it, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Pan American Health Organization said. (Reuters)
