Cholera Outbreak Report Summary (Feb 20, 2025)
1. Global Overview
- Cases & Deaths: Up to 26 January 2025, reported cases decreased by 27% (-9,552 cases) from December 2024, totaling 34,799 new cases (cholera and AWD) from 19 countries, with 349 deaths (33% decrease/-102 deaths). No report from Western Pacific Region.
- Risk Level: Estimated 1 billion persons at risk globally; current risk rated as "Very High".
- Key Challenges: Incomplete data due to underreporting and reporting delays; conflict, displacement, natural disasters (e.g., post-Cyclone Filipo in Mozambique, insecurity in DRC) hinder data collection. Cholera transmission is amplified in rural, flood-affected, and conflict zones.

-
Eastern Mediterranean: Cases drop 38%, cases from DRC (6,346), deaths from Sudan (46). Major contributors: Afghanistan, Yemen, Sudan, Pakistan.
-
South-East Asia: Cases up 33% from Dec, likely due to Myanmar/Yemen not reporting full data.
