From January 2001 to May 2006, we enrolled 1077 contacts of 399 cholera cases. 944 contacts completed the 21-day observation period. Including the week before case presentation and the 21-day follow-up period, diarrhea was reported by 49% (460/944) of household contacts Of those 335 patients with diarrhea and/or vomiting and negative rectal swab cultures, 51 (15%) had a ³ 4 fold rise in vibriocidal antibody titer during followup, suggesting a V. cholerae infection that was not detected by rectal swab culture
