“Cholera is spreading” … White sounds the alarm! (video)

The interim health minister, Firas Abyad, announced that there is a wide spread of cholera, mainly among Syrian displaced people, but there is a clear increase in the number of recorded injuries.

He explained that “contaminated water in different areas is the main factor contributing to the rise in cholera cases, in addition to the problem of contamination of vegetables by irrigation water, and thirdly comes the problem of contact with more people. “.

Abyad stressed that “the refining plant in the areas where cholera is spread is out of service, and therefore the water does not come back and remains contaminated, it goes to the citizens and spreads cholera among them”.

He believed that cholera “goes beyond the scope of the Ministry of Health and it is important to guarantee electricity for the water pumping stations, to ensure clean water”.
