What can you do if you get sick?🏥
If you or someone you care about gets sick, stay calm and remember that with the right care, a full recovery is possible. However, it's important to go to the hospital right away.
Here’s what you should do if you have diarrhea, with or without vomiting:
- Seek immediate medical care. Go to the nearest cholera treatment centre or health care facility as fast as possible.
- Prevent dehydration. Take oral rehydration solution/ sugar-salt solution (available from health workers, shops or can be made at home) or other fluids (soup, juice, soda, coconut water etc.).
- You need to replace the fluid you are losing; keep drinking even if you can’t keep it down.
