Abstract

Examining the clinical and immunological aspects of cholera in pregnancy was the study's main goal. Pregnancy tests were conducted on women of reproductive age who presented to the ICDDR, Bangladesh Dhaka hospital with cholera and were enrolled in a broader cohort study. At days 2, 7, and 21 following infection, we compared the first clinical characteristics and immunological responses of pregnant patients with those of non-pregnant female patients. To our experience, this is the first account of immunological responses in cholera-infected pregnant women. When compared to non-pregnant women, we discovered that early in pregnancy, clinical sickness and subsequent immunological responses are similar in pregnant women. These results imply that next research should focus on assessing the immunogenicity and safety of oral cholera vaccinations during pregnancy.
