With confirmed cases of cholera reported in a neighboring country, a state of national alert and vigilance has emerged, necessitating the adoption of a comprehensive, multi‑level preventive strategy grounded in international guidelines. This is not limited to an emergency health reaction, but rather requires a coordinated institutional intervention that spans the sectors of health, agriculture, trade, water, and media. The potential threat of cross‑border transmission of the cholera bacterium—whether through travelers or contaminated food products—demands the establishment of a protective barrier based on science, effective monitoring, and informed public awareness, as recommended in international references.
