Cholera vaccine: Two forms of cholera vaccine are currently in production, but neither is available in the United States. It consists of two oral doses separated by several weeks. It provides short lived incomplete immunity and is not recommended for most travelers.

Cholera vaccines: " Two oral vaccines have recently been developed: Orochol (Mutacol), licensed in Canada and Australia, and Dukoral, licensed in Canada, Australia, and the European Union. These vaccines, where available, are recommended only for high-risk individuals" See: http://www.mdtravelhealth.com/
