Service characteristics, Vice Trinh Quan Huan said, the current cholera existed in freshwater. Many river water samples, ice, raw vegetables and dog meat in some southern provinces mentioned above and the north (as Hai Duong, Bac Ninh, Hanoi) for all positive for cholera, while previously only found in cholera lived brackish water (which can survive 10 years in animal mollusk). There are no studies about the existence of the time cholera in freshwater but how much is probably quite long-Vice warning.
