Orissa's Cholera Outbreak Has Claimed 105 Lives
Medical teams have been dispatched to both districts to make up for the shortage of local doctors.
In spite of the large numbers of people dead from the disease, Orissa Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik denied the state was facing any epidemic.
"The situation is under control. The administration is taking every possible steps to counter cholera," he told reporters. "Dont call it an epidemic."

It's sad watching people have to go through this. We're lucky in the U.S. that we don't have to worry about cholera anymore.
