Health: Cholera Outbreak Announced in Littoral Days After Hitting South West Region

At least two deaths have already been recorded in Melong, Littoral Region due to the outbreak of the Cholera epidemic in the Region.

The Littoral Region has been hit by the disease, barely two days after three persons died in the South West Region from Cholera.

The Senior Divisional Officer of Melong reveals that more persons have equally been hospitalized in several health facilities.

Just as is the case with the South West Region, administrative authorities of the Littoral Region have called on the population to adhere to hygiene rules.

Persons with symptoms have been asked to go to health facilities for urgent treatment.

In the South West Region, health authorities have blamed water sources for the outbreak of the disease.

The most affected area in the South West Region so far has been the Mile 16, neighborhood in Buea.

Close to 15 cases have been reported from there alone in the past week.
