ETHIOPIA: Watery diarrhoea cases on the rise Watery diarrhoea has claimed the lives of 10 people and infected more than 1,400 others in the Gambella regional state in western Ethiopia since 15 April, said Turuwork Tafesse, director of disease surveillance for the country?s health ministry.
"We suspect cholera, but we haven't confirmed it yet," Turuwork said, adding that samples had been sent last Thursday for analysis. "The results are expected by the end of the week, or beginning of next week."
