00:00And in Sudan, authorities report more than 1,000 daily cases of a rapidly spreading cholera outbreak in Khartoum, of this war-torn country. Let's see.
00:11The outbreak is centered around the capital, Khartoum, and has spread as many Sudanese who had flooded the country's war-return home.
00:19These days, the cholera situation is really bad, especially in Khartoum, which became, at the moment, the epicenter of the outbreak.
00:34So, we had a wave of cholera that really increased in a few days, exploded in hundreds of cases, even getting above 1,000 cases a day in Khartoum.
00:49Most cases have been reported in Khartoum and its twin city of Omdurman, but cholera was also detected in the provinces of North Kordofen, Senar Gezura, White Nile, and Nile River, health officials said.
01:03Obviously, regarding the consequences of the conflict on the water system, on the health system, on the hygiene of the people, a lot of people got displaced many times,
01:19so they didn't have a shelter or even a house, so they were, you know, living in overcrowded shelter.
01:28So, the promiscuity, the lack of water, the lack of hygiene, and the lack of access to health care, all that contributed to really increase the cholera,
01:39and complicates the, to put the disease under control, the outbreak under control.
01:49Health workers fear the outbreak could spread quickly, since many people are packed into displacement centers, making it difficult to isolate those infected.
01:58so, the risk of health, and enforcing the Shanahan would also happen.
02:00Thank you and for the rest of the crisis, which is what you can do to help the health side of the health system.
