DRC: Cholera outbreak in North Kivu worsens
An outbreak of cholera in North Kivu province, in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), has claimed more sufferers in the past two weeks, medical and humanitarian officials said.
The most severely affected areas are the health zones of Pinga and Mweso in the upper and forested Masisi North area.
"The cholera epidemic has fluctuated in this zone but over the past couple of weeks we have seen a dramatic rise in [the number of] cases," said Gaby Lumangamenga of the UN World Health Organization (WHO) in the North Kivu capital, Goma.
