MSF warns of ‘rapidly spreading’ outbreak as cholera kills 31 in Ethiopia


At least 31 people have died from a “rapidly spreading” cholera outbreak that has sickened more than 1,500 people in Ethiopia‘s Gambella region over the past month, according to Doctors Without Borders, known by its French initials MSF.

The international medical charity said on Friday that the situation has worsened with the arrival of people fleeing violence in neighbouring South Sudan.
