Daily cases of watery diarrhea are being reported at Nyukuron Health Centre in Central Equatoria State, Juba.
Speaking to Miraya FM, Mr. Celestin Ojara, the Medical Assistant at the centre, urged the Government of South Sudan to ensure that every family has a pit latrine and garbage dumping pits in order to control the disease.
He said the centre has referred several cases of watery diarrhea to Juba Teaching Hospital.
The resurgence of Cholera in Central Equatoria State this year was announced early in May and by mid May, the disease was reported to have killed over 8 returnees in Eastern Equatoria State in Pajok, Owiny Kibul and Magwi.
