Case-area targeted interventions (CATIs) – whereby teams deliver a mixture of health and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions to cholera case households and neighboring households within a pre-determined radius – have become an increasingly common strategy to respond to cholera outbreaks. In this issue, Jennifer OKeeffe and colleagues prospectively study the impact of CATIs in Northeast Nigeria during the 2021 cholera outbreak to better understand how to successfully deploy and scale up CATIs as a core response to future outbreaks.
