Abstract

Cholera has reinstated its deadly grip on the planet with recent epidemics in Zimbabwe and Haiti (1, 2), along with the emergence of Vibrio cholerae having reduced susceptibility to fluoroquinolones. India also experiences frequent outbreaks caused by multidrug-resistant V. cholerae (3). We report reduced sensitivity to ciprofloxacin in V. cholerae O1 El Tor Ogawa and novel multiple mutations in the DNA topoisomerase parC gene.
