Cholera in Lagos State, Nigeria: a One Health perspective on outbreaks and public health interventions

2026Open accessUniversity of Nigeria

Abstract

Effective public health interventions are essential to mitigate cholera outbreaks in Lagos, preventing increased transmission, mortality, and economic disruption. Persistent outbreaks highlight the absence of a coordinated One Health policy in the state. Integrating human, animal, and environmental surveillance within a unified framework is critical to achieving Nigeria's cholera elimination targets by 2030.
