April 7 is World Health Day. It is a global health awareness day which is celebrated on the anniversary of the founding of the World Health Organization. World Health Day has a different theme each year. The theme for 2015 is food safety.
Cholera can be transmitted by contaminated food or water. In 1969, when my maternal grandparents John and Margaret (Schneider) Boe were traveling, they may have been exposed to cholera.
