The article tries to paint public health authorities as negatively as possible. I can't say I blame them for not wanting to invest much in a vaccine which has at best 60% efficacy. I'm sure a lot of money has been spent on more promising efforts which fizzled completely. We certainly are not going to eradicate cholera with this vaccine either. Still, all in all it's great news. Let's keep this graph going down and with a vaccine outbreaks are going to be less common and less severe.
