WHO: Sudans Cholera Outbreak May Get Worse Due to Conflict and Rains
A cholera outbreak in Sudan could get worse as war, displacement and the onset of the rainy season threaten to exacerbate a humanitarian crisis in the country, the World Health Organization warned on Friday. The cholera outbreak declared on June 27, which has killed at least 114 people and infected more than 1,300 others, is spreading across several Sudanese states, particularly in Darfur and Kordofan, where access for aid and healthcare workers remains severely constrained, the WHO said.
