摘要

The outbreak of cholera in Nigeria represents a significant public health challenge, worsened by factors such as poor sanitation, inadequate clean water supply, and climate variability. This study explores multiple approaches required to address this epidemic through the lens of the One Health framework, which recognizes the interconnection between human, animal, and environmental health. Integrating epidemiological data, environmental studies, and veterinary science, the One Health approach offers a holistic strategy to combat cholera. This study examines the current cholera outbreak in Nigeria, identifying key contributing factors and evaluating the effectiveness of One Health interventions. The findings underscore the importance of collaborative efforts across sectors, including improved water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) practices, robust surveillance systems, and community engagement. Additionally, the study highlights the role of climate change in increasing cholera outbreaks and the necessity of incorporating environmental health strategies into public health planning. The One Health approach not only enhances understanding of cholera dynamics but also promotes sustainable solutions to prevent future outbreaks, ultimately contributing to the broader goal of global health security.
