The broad street cholera outbreak was a severe outbreak of cholera that occurred in 1854 in the district of city of Westminster, London, England. Analysis after it concluded that cholera was transmitted through and affected the alimentary canal within the human body. Cholera did not affect either the circulatory or the nervous system and there was no "poison in the blood...in the consecutive fever...the blood became poisoned from urea getting into the circulation".According to Snow, this "urea" entered the blood through kidney failure. (Acute kidney failure is a complication of cholera.)According to Snow, cholera was spread by persons ingesting a substance, not through atmospheric transmittal. Snow cited a case of two sailors, one with cholera and one without. Eventually the second became sick as well from accidentally ingesting bodily fluids of the first.

To prevent similar outcome in future we have to concentrate on providing pure and fresh water to people. We have to stop polluted water from factories to mix in the rivers. By these ways we can stop these similar outcomes in future.
