I think cholera only comes from lakes ATM, so it depends on where you got the water from

The dam area near novo, the stream closer to the city not the blocked in part.

One of my public characters has it not sure what the Long term means for me but it makes your hydration dissappear at an alarming rate... Not sure what to do...

But you get it instantly so if you don't have it you won't get it I'm pretty sure.. At least that's how it worked for me.

Seems to have something to do with blood level. One of my chars on a private shard was really low on blood and I get it without 3 gulps of water from a lake, and my public shard guy with full blood take over 15 till I was really full and i didn't get it.

The only way this would directly effect anyone is if they made about 50% of the pumps in towns none functional and basically make ppl forced into using pond water as drinking sources. Cause iv never once come into contact with this disease yet. But again im pretty sure water purifying tablets will be just as rare to counter this as well if they do.
