It seems that the Napelese Army specializes in peace keeping: http://www.nepalarmy.mil.np/na_un.php
It is near certain that some of the Nepalese troops being sent to Haiti were infected with cholera, either at the time of their medical examination or during the 10 days of home-leave that followed, and then carried the microbe to Haiti to be circulated via contaminated feces.
There is plenty of discussion about why the troops were not tested. However the net of the Science Article is:
Piarroux [On the ground French researcher] says the study perfectly complements his own shoe-leather work in Haiti last year. "I am very impressed that the Nepalese scientists agreed to help the truth become known," Piarroux says. "That was very courageous. I'm sure that not everybody in Nepal will be happy." Keim says the Nepalese group knew and trusted the Danish scientists; they were well aware from the outset that the outcome might finger the peacekeepers, he says, and agreed to have the results published.OK Brothers and Sisters, it is time for you to pony up. Compensation must be paid by everyone to Haiti. You are saying "I had nothing to do with anything". "What about the Napelese officials and their doctors?" No Brother everyone is to blame for everything and anything bad that happens to someone else. Stop you whining.
The study should have a practical upshot, Piarroux says. Now that there's evidence beyond a reasonable doubt, the United Nations should accept responsibility and make amends to Haiti, he says—for instance, by offering financial compensation or by supporting an all-out effort to make the country cholera-free again. "More than 6000 people are dead," Piarroux says. "It's our fault, as the people of the world."
