Cholera causes the production of severe watery diarrhea. Left untreated the disease can rapidly cause extreme dehydration, leading to kidney failure and possible death. A weak physical condition increases the likelihood of severe symptoms and possibly serious complications from the disease. Cholera is treated with electrolyte solutions, also known as oral rehydration salts, in order to replace lost nutrients from the body.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tCholera first reached Canada in 1832, brought by immigrants from Britain. Epidemics occurred in 1832, 1834, 1849, 1851, 1852 and 1854. There were cases in Halifax in 1881. The epidemics killed at least 20 000 people in Canada. Cholera was feared because it was deadly and no one understood how it spread or how to treat it. The death rate for untreated cases is extremely high. Grosse \u00cele, near Qu\u00e9bec, was opened in 1832 as a quarantine station and all ships stopped there for inspection.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tDuring epidemics, individual towns attempted to quarantine themselves against the disease. When quarantine failed to stop the disease, public health measures were taken by towns and provincial and colonial governments. The response to cholera encouraged governments to act to protect the health of Canadians and to provide for the sick. Not all the actions were popular and in some areas riots ensued, with crowds burning the cholera hospitals. Anger over cholera contributed to the antigovernment agitation in Lower Canada in the 1830s. Cholera was fairly common around the world prior to the advent of modern sanitation methods developed in the 20th century. Familiarity with the disease reduced the fear in later epidemics and a better understanding of how it spreads has made more effective prevention possible.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tIn the modern world cholera becomes endemic due to a lack of infrastructure and weak health care systems that lower the effectiveness of sanitation and contribute to conditions that allow the bacteria to thrive. The disease is common in refugee camps because of crowded and unsanitary conditions. South America had outbreaks of cholera in the 1990s and outbreaks continue to occur sporadically in southern Africa. Cholera is endemic in Malawi, Zambia and Mozambique. In Zimbabwe, deteriorating political conditions have also affected the social system and cholera is becoming endemic even in the nation&#039;s capital, Harare, where modern sanitation formerly helped prevent cholera. Medical professionals are attempting to improve public education about cholera prevention in regions prone to it, but without government investment in sanitation infrastructure, only limited success can be achieved.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tThe annual number of reported cases of cholera in Canada during 1995 to 2004 ranged from 1 to 8. Most cases in Canada result from international travel to an affected region.

Cholera causes the production of severe watery diarrhea. Left untreated the disease can rapidly cause extreme dehydration, leading to kidney failure and possible death. A weak physical condition increases the likelihood of severe symptoms and possibly serious complications from the disease. Cholera is treated with electrolyte solutions, also known as oral rehydration salts, in order to replace lost nutrients from the body.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tCholera first reached Canada in 1832, brought by immigrants from Britain. Epidemics occurred in 1832, 1834, 1849, 1851, 1852 and 1854. There were cases in Halifax in 1881. The epidemics killed at least 20 000 people in Canada. Cholera was feared because it was deadly and no one understood how it spread or how to treat it. The death rate for untreated cases is extremely high. Grosse \u00cele, near Qu\u00e9bec, was opened in 1832 as a quarantine station and all ships stopped there for inspection.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tDuring epidemics, individual towns attempted to quarantine themselves against the disease. When quarantine failed to stop the disease, public health measures were taken by towns and provincial and colonial governments. The response to cholera encouraged governments to act to protect the health of Canadians and to provide for the sick. Not all the actions were popular and in some areas riots ensued, with crowds burning the cholera hospitals. Anger over cholera contributed to the antigovernment agitation in Lower Canada in the 1830s. Cholera was fairly common around the world prior to the advent of modern sanitation methods developed in the 20th century. Familiarity with the disease reduced the fear in later epidemics and a better understanding of how it spreads has made more effective prevention possible.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tIn the modern world cholera becomes endemic due to a lack of infrastructure and weak health care systems that lower the effectiveness of sanitation and contribute to conditions that allow the bacteria to thrive. The disease is common in refugee camps because of crowded and unsanitary conditions. South America had outbreaks of cholera in the 1990s and outbreaks continue to occur sporadically in southern Africa. Cholera is endemic in Malawi, Zambia and Mozambique. In Zimbabwe, deteriorating political conditions have also affected the social system and cholera is becoming endemic even in the nation&#039;s capital, Harare, where modern sanitation formerly helped prevent cholera. Medical professionals are attempting to improve public education about cholera prevention in regions prone to it, but without government investment in sanitation infrastructure, only limited success can be achieved.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tThe annual number of reported cases of cholera in Canada during 1995 to 2004 ranged from 1 to 8. Most cases in Canada result from international travel to an affected region.

Il cause des diarrh\u00e9es aqueuses aigu\u00ebs. En l&#039;absence de traitement, il peut rapidement entra\u00eener une d\u00e9shydratation s\u00e9v\u00e8re et une insuffisance r\u00e9nale et la mort. Une mauvaise condition physique augmente les probabilit\u00e9s de sympt\u00f4mes s\u00e9v\u00e8res et de complications potentiellement graves. Le chol\u00e9ra est trait\u00e9 au moyen de solutions \u00e9lectrolytiques, soit des sels de r\u00e9hydratation \u00e0 administrer par voie buccale, qui remplacent les nutriments perdus par le corps.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tLa maladie a \u00e9t\u00e9 introduite pour la premi\u00e8re fois au Canada en 1832, par des immigrants en provenance de la Grande-Bretagne. Des \u00e9pid\u00e9mies surviennent en 1832, 1834, 1849, 1851, 1852 et 1854. On rapporte \u00e9galement quelques cas \u00e0 Halifax en 1881. Au Canada, au moins 20 000 personnes sont mortes lors de ces \u00e9pid\u00e9mies. \u00c0 l&#039;\u00e9poque, on redoute le chol\u00e9ra, car c&#039;est une maladie mortelle dont personne ne conna\u00eet le mode de propagation ni le traitement. Le taux de mortalit\u00e9 des cas non trait\u00e9s est tr\u00e8s \u00e9lev\u00e9. En 1832, on ouvre une station de quarantaine \u00e0 la Grosse-\u00cele, pr\u00e8s de Qu\u00e9bec; tous les navires doivent s&#039;y arr\u00eater afin d&#039;\u00eatre inspect\u00e9s.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tDurant les \u00e9pid\u00e9mies, certaines villes tentent de se mettre d&#039;elles-m\u00eames en quarantaine afin de se prot\u00e9ger de la maladie. Lorsque la quarantaine s&#039;av\u00e8re inefficace, des mesures de sant\u00e9 publique sont prises par les villes ainsi que les gouvernements provinciaux et colonial. La r\u00e9action face au chol\u00e9ra encourage les gouvernements \u00e0 agir pour prot\u00e9ger la sant\u00e9 des Canadiens et s&#039;occuper des malades. Les mesures prises ne sont pas toutes populaires et, dans certaines r\u00e9gions, des \u00e9meutes \u00e9clatent, au cours desquelles la foule br\u00fble les h\u00f4pitaux \u00e9tablis pour traiter les malades. Dans les ann\u00e9es 1830, la col\u00e8re au sujet du chol\u00e9ra contribue \u00e0 la campagne contre le gouvernement dans le Bas-Canada. La maladie est assez courante dans le monde avant l&#039;av\u00e8nement des m\u00e9thodes sanitaires modernes au cours du 20e si\u00e8cle. Elle effraie moins la population \u00e0 mesure que les gens se familiarisent avec elle au cours des \u00e9pid\u00e9mies subs\u00e9quentes. Une meilleure compr\u00e9hension de la mani\u00e8re dont elle se propage permet une pr\u00e9vention plus efficace.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tDans le monde moderne, le chol\u00e9ra peut \u00eatre end\u00e9mique dans les r\u00e9gions o\u00f9 le manque d&#039;infrastructure et des syst\u00e8mes de soins de sant\u00e9 insuffisants diminuent l&#039;efficacit\u00e9 des mesures sanitaires et contribuent aux conditions permettant \u00e0 la bact\u00e9rie de se d\u00e9velopper. La maladie est fr\u00e9quente dans les camps de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s en raison de l&#039;encombrement et des mauvaises conditions sanitaires. Des \u00e9closions de chol\u00e9ra sont survenues en Am\u00e9rique du Sud dans les ann\u00e9es 1990 et d&#039;autres continuent \u00e0 se produire en Afrique du Sud de fa\u00e7on sporadique. Le chol\u00e9ra est end\u00e9mique au Malawi, en Zambie et au Mozambique. Au Zimbabwe, la d\u00e9gradation de la situation politique a aussi eu des r\u00e9percussions sur le syst\u00e8me social, et le chol\u00e9ra est en train d&#039;y devenir end\u00e9mique, m\u00eame dans la capitale, Harare, o\u00f9 les mesures d&#039;hygi\u00e8ne modernes avaient r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 \u00e9liminer les vagues de chol\u00e9ra. Les professionnels de la sant\u00e9 tentent d&#039;am\u00e9liorer l&#039;\u00e9ducation du public en mati\u00e8re de pr\u00e9vention dans les r\u00e9gions sujettes aux \u00e9pid\u00e9mies de chol\u00e9ra, mais sans investissement gouvernemental dans l&#039;infrastructure sanitaire, la r\u00e9ussite ne peut \u00eatre que limit\u00e9e.\r\n&lt;\/p&gt;\r\n&lt;p&gt;\r\n\tLe nombre annuel de cas de chol\u00e9ra d\u00e9clar\u00e9s au Canada de 1995 \u00e0 2004 est pass\u00e9 de 1 \u00e0 8. La plupart des cas canadiens sont caus\u00e9s par des voyages \u00e0 l&#039;\u00e9tranger dans des r\u00e9gions touch\u00e9es. Le chol\u00e9ra est consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme une \u00ab maladie \u00e0 d\u00e9claration obligatoire \u00bb, ce qui signifie que les autorit\u00e9s nationales et mondiales de la sant\u00e9 doivent \u00eatre avis\u00e9es de tous les cas.

Il est alors admis \u00e0 l\u2019h\u00f4pital &lt;a href=\&quot;https:\/\/www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/fr\/article\/hotel-dieu\&quot; target=\&quot;_blank\&quot; style=\&quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\&quot;&gt;H\u00f4tel-Dieu&lt;\/a&gt; de Montr\u00e9al. George Longley survit, mais sa literie infecte P\u00e9lagie Robichaud, une Acadienne qui travaille \u00e0 la buanderie. Elle meurt le 1&lt;sup&gt;er&lt;\/sup&gt;avril, suivie de pr\u00e8s par sa s\u0153ur Marie.&lt;br&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u00c0 la mi-avril, la variole s\u2019est empar\u00e9e de l\u2019h\u00f4pital et ne peut \u00eatre contenue. Le Bureau de la sant\u00e9 montr\u00e9alais fait alors une erreur catastrophique. Il renvoie tous les patients qui ne semblent pas malades. Beaucoup en sont alors au stade de l\u2019incubation de la maladie et ils r\u00e9pandent largement le virus dans Montr\u00e9al.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La variole est une des maladies les plus contagieuses et les plus d\u00e9testables \u00e0 avoir menac\u00e9 l\u2019humanit\u00e9. Or, le plus tragique dans l\u2019\u00e9pid\u00e9mie de Montr\u00e9al, c\u2019est qu\u2019elle aurait pu \u00eatre \u00e9vit\u00e9e. Le vaccin antivariolique, mis au point par Edward Jenner en Angleterre en 1796, est bien r\u00e9pandu \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque. D\u2019ailleurs, en Angleterre, la vaccination contre la variole est obligatoire d\u00e8s la moiti\u00e9 du 19&lt;sup&gt;e&lt;\/sup&gt;si\u00e8cle.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;D\u2019aucuns, toutefois, se m\u00e9fient de la vaccination. C\u2019est le cas de nombreux Canadiens fran\u00e7ais, qui l\u2019associent aux chirurgiens britanniques. Vivant souvent dans des logements d\u00e9labr\u00e9s, sales et surpeupl\u00e9s des quartiers les plus pauvres de la ville, ils sont facilement convaincus par les discours contre la vaccination et les d\u00e9fenseurs de l\u2019hom\u00e9opathie, qui consid\u00e8rent la vaccination comme du \u00abcharlatanisme\u00bb, vou\u00e9 \u00e0 \u00abl\u2019empoisonnement de nos enfants\u00bb.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pendant ce temps, Montr\u00e9al se taille la r\u00e9putation de ville de la peste, \u00e0 \u00e9viter \u00e0 tout prix. On est en plein \u00e9t\u00e9 et des gens se prom\u00e8nent dans la rue avec leurs enfants couverts de gales encore contagieuses. D\u00e8s juillet, la maladie envahit Saint-Henri et Vaudreuil. Chaque nuit, on monte des corps au cimeti\u00e8re de C\u00f4te-des-Neiges dans des corbillards ainsi identifi\u00e9s: \u00abSMALLPOX-PICOTTE\u00bb [sic].&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;M\u00eame les victimes bien connues sont enterr\u00e9es rapidement. Quand &lt;a href=\&quot;https:\/\/www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/fr\/article\/sir-francis-hincks\&quot; target=\&quot;_blank\&quot;&gt;sir Francis Hincks&lt;\/a&gt;, un ancien premier ministre de la province du Canada, succombe \u00e0 la maladie, on inhume h\u00e2tivement son corps au petit matin, en pr\u00e9sence de quelques membres de la famille.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Les tentatives des fonctionnaires de la sant\u00e9 publique d\u2019appliquer les r\u00e8gles de vaccination et d\u2019isolement ou m\u00eame d\u2019\u00e9loigner les morts provoquent la r\u00e9sistance quand ce n\u2019est des \u00e9meutes. Les agents sanitaires sont attaqu\u00e9s alors qu\u2019ils enl\u00e8vent les corps des quartiers les plus infect\u00e9s.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le 28 septembre, les cloches de Notre-Dame retentissent pour faire appel \u00e0 la police de toute la ville pour disperser la foule agit\u00e9e qui envahit les rues et lance des pierres. &lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u00c0 la fin de l\u2019ann\u00e9e, la variole vient \u00e0 manquer d\u2019h\u00f4tes non vaccin\u00e9s, et le nombre de cas baisse enfin. La maladie a alors fait pr\u00e8s de 6000 morts au &lt;a href=\&quot;https:\/\/www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/fr\/article\/quebec\&quot; target=\&quot;_blank\&quot;&gt;Qu\u00e9bec&lt;\/a&gt;, dont plus de 3000 \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al, et 13 000 autres personnes sont d\u00e9figur\u00e9es. Neuf victimes sur dix sont des Canadiens fran\u00e7ais, la plupart des enfants.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;En raison de la progression de la m\u00e9decine et de la sant\u00e9 publique, l\u2019\u00e9pid\u00e9mie de variole de Montr\u00e9al est la derni\u00e8re apparition non ma\u00eetris\u00e9e du fl\u00e9au dans une ville moderne. En 1979, l\u2019Organisation mondiale de la sant\u00e9 annonce l\u2019\u00e9radication g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de la maladie, m\u00eame si des \u00e9chantillons du virus sont gard\u00e9s dans les laboratoires gouvernementaux des \u00c9tats-Unis et de la Russie.&lt;\/p&gt; &lt;table align=\&quot;right\&quot; border=\&quot;0\&quot; width=\&quot;360\&quot;&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;\/td&gt; &lt;\/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td align=\&quot;center\&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;\/td&gt;&lt;\/tr&gt;&lt;\/tbody&gt;&lt;\/table&gt;&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;un-fleau-frappe-montreal&quot;,&quot;alt_slug&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;twitter_summary&quot;:null,&quot;locale&quot;:&quot;fr&quot;,&quot;automated&quot;:false,&quot;hidden&quot;:0,&quot;views&quot;:0,&quot;created_at&quot;:&quot;2013-04-03T00:00:00.000000Z&quot;,&quot;updated_at&quot;:&quot;2019-01-25T17:28:52.000000Z&quot;}]}],&quot;associated_collections&quot;:[]}" header="Content" ></article-sidebar> </div> <div class="main-content"> <input class="js-picture-information" type="hidden" value="[]"> <main class="main-grid"> <article class="article main-grid__content"> <input type="hidden" id="isUserLogin" name="loginuser" value=""> <aside id="articlewidgets" class="article-widgets"> <input type="checkbox" class="menu-open" name="menu-open" id="menu-open"/> <label class="widget-open-button" for="menu-open"> <span class="dot--1"></span> <span class="dot--2"></span> <span class="dot--3"></span> </label> <button data-target="popup-citation" data-toggle="modal" class="widget-item articleNavPopupEvent"> <div class="widget-item__icon--citation"></div> <span class="widget-item__title">Citation</span> </button> <button data-toggle="modal" class="widget-item articleNavPopupEvent js-edit-submit"> <div class="widget-item__icon--edit"></div> <span class="widget-item__title">Suggest an Edit</span> </button> <button data-target="popup-translation" data-toggle="modal" class="widget-item articleNavPopupEvent js-translation"> <div class="widget-item__icon--translate"></div> <span class="widget-item__title">Request translation</span> </button> <button id="popup-translation__original" class="widget-item hide-widget"> <div class="widget-item__icon--revert"></div> <span class="widget-item__title">Revert to English</span> </button> </aside> <div id="popup-translation" class="modal"> <div class="popup-wrapper"> <div class="popup-content"> <div class="popup-title"> <div role="heading">Request a Translation</div> <div> <a class="popup-close" data-dismiss="modal"></a> </div> </div> <div class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="'6LeIWwglAAAAANriZBXJ8HgScx2u6jGAx0gY0GKm'" data-callback="onSubmit" data-size="invisible"> </div> <div class="popup-body"> <div id="translation-language-picker"> <translation-select recaptcha-site-key="6LeIWwglAAAAANriZBXJ8HgScx2u6jGAx0gY0GKm" slug=typhus locale=en></translation-select> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="translation-rating-snackbar"> <translation-rating show-rating=0 slug=typhus></translation-rating> </div> <div id="popup-edit" class="modal"> <div class="popup-wrapper"> <div class="popup-content"> <div class="popup-title"> <div>Suggest an Edit</div> <div> <a class="popup-close" data-dismiss="modal"></a> </div> </div> <div class="popup-body"> <div class="contact-form edit-form"> <div class="form-error-list"> <ul></ul> </div> <form method="POST" action="https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/submitArticle" accept-charset="UTF-8" class="form form-submit-edit form-main"><input name="_token" type="hidden" value="a46deaLo4xIbtJHnX1tYLaGtdPxWn79wakUfOSzY"> <input name="aid" type="hidden" value="83350"> <input name="edit" type="hidden" value="true"> <div class="input-group "> <label for="description">Enter your suggested edit(s) to this article in the form field below</label> <textarea id="text-editor" class="form-control input input-fullSpan" placeholder="Write your message here..." name="description" cols="50" rows="10"></textarea> </div> <div class="btn-container"> <div> <input class="disabled js-submitedit-submit b b-md b-invert" type="submit" value="Submit"> </div> <div> <a href="#" data-dismiss="modal" class="js-popup-close b-link">Cancel</a> </div> </div> </form> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="popup-citation" class="modal"> <div class="popup-wrapper"> <div class="popup-content"> <div class="popup-title"> <div> Citation </div> <div> <a class="popup-close" data-dismiss="modal"></a> </div> </div> <div class="popup-body"> <ul class="list"> <li> <ul class="citation-reference"> <input id="copy1" type="text" value="MLA 8TH EDITION |聽. &quot;Typhus&quot;. <em>The Canadian Encyclopedia</em>, 17 February 2015, <em>Historica Canada</em>. www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/typhus.
