Non-01 Vibrio cholerae gastroenteritis in New Hampshire: a case report.

Abstract

Non-01 Vibrio cholerae gastroenteritis has been reported in the literature in association with foreign travel, or seafood ingestion, particularly raw shellfish harvested from warm-water climates. Non-01 V. cholerae gastroenteritis has not been reported before from New England. The case presented describes a previously healthy female who developed non-01 V. cholerae gastroenteritis approximately 26 hours after ingestion of raw cherrystone clams.
