Abstract

Competing Interests: We thank members of the Kenyan Ministry of Health for the assistance in conducting this study. Patients suspected of having cholera gave informed consent for participation in the previous study. Funding for the study was provided by The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (OPP1148763), which provided financial support through the John Hopkins University Delivery of Oral Cholera Vaccine Effectively (DOVE) project, and from a grant from the US National institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (5R01AI123422). The funding agencies had no role in collecting, analysing, or interpreting the results. The rapid diagnostic tests were provided by Arkray Healthcare, Gujarat, India. The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the US National Institutes of Health. We declare no competing interests.
