These diseases are known to cause sporadic epidemics. Cholera and shigellosis are known to even cause pandemics.

Epilepsy and its association with acute diarrhea is a new area for research. Prevention of acute diarrhea in school children and treatment with herbal medicines are important areas to pursue further.
