Bujumbura - A cholera outbreak has killed at least seven people in western Burundi, where it has infected more than 400 people in the past three weeks, the health ministry said on Monday.
Authorities are treating as an epidemic the outbreak affecting an area stretching from Cibitoke, about 45km north of Bujumbura, to Rumonge, 80km south of the Burundian capital.
BUJUMBURA, 14 September 2011 (IRIN) - Burundian health officials are battling to control a cholera outbreak that has killed 12 people and infected 600 others since August.
Although the epidemic is under control in some areas, health officials in the capital, Bujumbura, said a new area of infection had started at Nyanza Lac, Makamba province, where 80 new cases have been reported, 64 of whom are in hospital.
"The figure is still high at Nyanza Lac because the infection is still new there and contingency measures are not yet in place as in other affected areas," said Pamphile Bukuru, an officer in charge of information, education and communication for behaviour change in the Ministry of Public Health.
