Cholera kills 25 people in Yemen in single week: WHO
 [Iran Press TV] The World Health Organization (WHO) says cholera claimed the lives of 25 people in Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... last week, several months after the outbreak of the infectious disease was declared in the war-torn Arab country. "(This) is extremely alarming. We are facing a reactivation of the cholera epidemic," further said Nevio Zagaria, WHO's acting representative in Yemen, on Monday. Back in October last year, the United Nations ...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships... agency reported that the number of suspected cholera cases in Yemen had soared to 1,410, some three weeks after it announced the grim news of the cholera outbreak in country. Cholera is an acute intestinal infection caused by ingestion of food or water contaminated with the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It is a fast-developing infection that causes diarrhea, which can quickly lead to severe dehydration and death in up to 15 percent of untreated cases. Posted by: Fred 2017-05-09 |
