We also have a similar report from Yemen in 2009:

http://www.flutrackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=113114

IMO, the current outbreak does seem a lot more like the 2009 one than the 2010, especially with the suspicion and exclusion of cholera. HFRS was mentioned in 2010, but the symptoms did not match too well. Personally, I have been wondering about EHEC in these outbreaks, especially now that mention of "vegetables" has been reported.

Notably, this outbreak is in a different distrcit (Dhala), than the previous ones (Hodeidah).
