Nine die as cholera hits Musoma

The deadly cholera disease has erupted in Handeni District in Tanga Region, killing six people.

>Seventeen Burundian refugees being accommodated in Kigoma Region have died from an outbreak of cholera and several others appear to be trapped in a health crisis arising from poor sanitation in the temporary camps.

The death toll due to cholera in Kigoma has now risen to 33. There are fears that the outbreak, in which the victims are refugees fleeing violence in Burundi, may take more than two weeks to contain.

More than 3,000 Burundian refugees in Tanzania have contracted cholera, the UN says, with hundreds of new cases a day.

A Standard Four pupil in Kyela District, Mbeya Region, has died and six other people are hospitalised following the outbreak of cholera in the district.
