Illustration of a rash on the chest of a patient with cholera. This is a rare symptom. Cholera, a bacterial infection of the intestines, was often fatal before modern treatments were developed. It spread in infected water supplies and killed millions in the 19th century. The bacterium causing the disease (Vibrio cholerae) was not identified until 1883. Illustration from circa 1897. | |
