Malawi has declared the end of the country's worst-ever cholera outbreak, which has killed nearly 2,000 people since its onset in March of 2022. In a statement Monday, the Ministry of Health says the country has registered no cases and deaths from cholera in 26 of the country's 29 health districts for the past four weeks. Some health experts, however, say the outbreak could resurface if the country fails to address the sanitation problems that caused it. Lameck Masina reports from Blantyre
