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.

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.
