iciHaiti - Cholera : Slight upward trend in March 29/04/2018 09:16:22 The rainy season from April to June and the beginning of the holiday season across the country, between June and September, are important risk factors that require maintaining the level of response activities. This includes coordination, case management, epidemiological surveillance and community rapid response. The widespread use of oral cholera vaccination to immediately reduce the burden of the disease in hotspots should also be added more systematically to these activities. Situation in figures : 1st to 30th March 2018 : 290 new suspected cholera cases -78% compared with March 1st to 31st 2017 1 new death -87% in comparison with March 1 to 31, 2017 October 2010 to March 2018 : 819,000 cumulative cases 9,757 cumulative deaths From 1st January to 31 March 2018 272,305 people were sensitized during rapid responses and prevention activities. 27,235 households received at least one home water chlorination product. 1,760 suspected cases responded to by response teams (including cases of acute diarrhea), 98% of suspected cholera cases responded to and 95% of response within 48 hours.
