Abstract
In the first decade of the XXI century large-scale cholera epidemics and outbreaks were registered in African, Asian, and North American countries. Importation of infection from endemic foci to all continents took place almost every year, and the tendency of global cholera morbidity growth was observed. All that determined unfavorable prognosis on cholera at the global level. Cholera epidemic in the Caribbean Basin region, Haiti, caused by V.cholerae El Tor harboring cholera toxin ctxB gene of classical biovar is expected to predetermine either the beginning of a new period of the seventh pandemic or the onset of new pandemic.
