EXPERIMENTAL

This is a single arm study. All consenting, eligible participants will receive the oral cholera vaccine.

Biological: rBS-WC vaccine

Interventions

rBS-WC vaccineBIOLOGICAL

1 mg of recombinant cholera toxin B subunit and approximately 1 x 10\^11 of inactivated whole cells of Vibrio cholerae O1 Inaba and Ogawa, classic and El Tor strains (6). The rBS-WC vaccine is supplied as 3 ml single-dose vials each with a sachet of sodium bicarbonate buffer. Buffer solution will be prepared by dissolving the sachets in drinking water (150 ml water for each sachet of sodium bicarbonate). The full dose of vaccine will be mixed with 40, 75, or 150 ml of buffer solution for persons 2 to 4 years, 5 to 11 years, and over 11 years old, respectively. The vaccine is recommended to be given in two doses with an interval of at least seven days and protection is conferred 7 to 10 days after the second dose.
