Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that the term 'enteritis' may be confused with other gastrointestinal conditions. It is important to use the phrase 'infecciones por Vibrio cholerae' instead of 'debido a' when discussing infectious agents. Avoid colloquial terms that may arise in conversation, such as 'cólera' without specification. Follow the phrasing patterns outlined in the Spanish terminology guidelines.
