In Greece. a problem of violence directed against children does exist. The actual magnitude of this problem is difficult to estimate, but its size appears to be smaller in comparison with that reported in other populations.

A total of 541 cases of cholera were observed between May 7 and July 19, 1985 among the 9,929 displaced persons present in a refugee camp in Africa. In spite of malnutrition and other diseases affecting this population, only 12 deaths occurred. Antiepidemic measures consisted of preparation of isolation-wards, treatment of contaminated materials, training of refugees and patient care. Mass prophylaxis, initially considered, was dropped before the end of the epidemic.
