SADC Ministers Reject Cholera Emergency Declaration
Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) health ministers have refused to accept a proposal by the Africa Center for Disease Control to declare cholera a public health emergency in SADC member countries. This, as cholera has affected nearly 15 member states, according to the Lusaka Times. Khumbize Kandodo Chiponda, Malawi’s health minister, tells VOA’s James Butty, the Africa CDC needs to develop guidelines because cholera’s impact varies from country to country.
