Cholera is still common in parts of the world where people drink their sewage.....waaaayyyyy more common than you think.
 
not necessarily drinking sewage. just bad piping out here mostly, forced to drink water from bad water sources. and flooding....where people are forced to walk through sewage due to, again, bad piping....
