The protection afforded by a combined enteric and cholera vaccine administered by the intradermal route, and demonstrated by active and passive mouse protection tests and agglutination titres, is excellent and equal to that given individually by the component TAB and cholera vaccines.

In order to reduce the number of injections required and the unpleasant reactions provoked it is suggested that combined enteric and cholera vaccine administered by the intradermal route is of value, where appropriate, for the vaccination of travellers, and for the rapid protection of non-immune persons in the event of natural disasters or mobilization.
