Although treatment for cholera is well-known and cheap, outbreaks in epidemic regions still exact high death tolls mostly due to the unpreparedness of health care infrastructures to face unforeseen emergencies.

Here, we test a real-time forecasting framework that readily integrates new information as soon as available and periodically issues an updated forecast.
