Not quite the Black Plague...
...but I think I'll eat at the hotel restaurant tonight, thank you very much.
Last week there was an outbreak of cholera here in Mumbai that has sent over 300 people to the hospital. The government has been trying to hush it up, for fear of scaring off tourists, and say it is "merely gastroenteritis" but the newspapers (just like back in the USA) are being a thorn in their side and raising red flags.
It was centered at the Crawford Farmers' Market "townside" about 40 kilometers away (Mumbai is a very long peninsular city) so we have nothing to worry about up here. Still, I think I'll eat at the hotel rather from a sidewalk food stall today.

Fewer cases are being found so they think the worst is over. And suddenly the city government has found money to clean up the Crawford Market.
