Haemagglutinating, vibriocidal and mouse protective antibody responses in cholera patients were found to be maximum on the 7th day of admission. The mouse protective antibody on the first day at the hospital was lower than those of human volunteers. The circulating antibodies in the patients declined to normal levels or lower than normal before 3 months after the acute onset.
