Health authorities in the Far North region of Cameroon have confirmed two cases of cholera, sparking concerns about a potential outbreak in the region. Four members of the same family were admitted to the hospital on November 8th, showing severe symptoms of diarrhoea, leading to the confirmation.

The Maroua Regional Hospital laboratory analysed samples from the patients, confirming two positive cases of cholera on November 10th. On the same day, the hospital admitted three additional individuals with symptoms of diarrhoea, intensifying the urgency of the health situation.

Officials have declared Maroua 2 and Maroua 3 districts to be in a state of epidemic. The outbreak raises alarm, but no deaths have been reported as of this report.

Health officials urge immediate preventive measures and heightened vigilance to contain the spread of the disease. Residents should practise strict hygiene protocols, including frequent hand washing and consuming safe drinking water.

Cholera is a highly contagious disease that can spread rapidly in areas with inadequate respect for sanitation protocols. Prompt action and public awareness are essential to prevent further cases and ensure the safety of the affected communities.
