WHO Scales Up Integrated Cholera Outbreak Response in Greater KapoetaBy Pamela Angeth Buol, Augusta Mattia, Dominic Franco Oye and Oluwaseun EgbinolaKapoeta - On 15th April, Kapoeta South County of Eastern Equatoria State, reported its first suspected Cholera case. Within one week, the outbreak spread to the neighboring counties in Kapoeta North and East. All three counties are the latest addition to the long list of 53 counties currently reporting Cholera cases in South Sudan. These counties also form the Greater Kapoeta which borders Uganda, Kenya and Ethiopia. In light of this rapid spread and the risk of cross border contamination, the Ministry of Health in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) deployed response teams in Greater Kapoeta Region.
