Do you mean "cause" or "course" ?
The cause is the vibrio cholera. The course depends on whether the patient is treated on time or not. If the patient is not treated he may die, if he is treated, he may heal

Causes of Cholera :
The most common cause of cholera is by someone eating food or drinking water that has been contaminated with the bacteria.
After a disaster, this is a very real danger, since regular, clean water and food supplies are often unavailable. The disease can be spread even further by infected people using already dirty water sources to clean themselves or dispose of waste.

Cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It is typically contracted by consumption of contaminated water or poorly cooked seafood.
