Since February 1, the country has been seeing over 100 new cholera cases every day, with a high of 295 cases recorded on February 8.

However, the confirmation of cases through laboratory testing remains limited, with only around 20 samples being processed daily.

The outbreak, which started on January 7, has spread across several provinces, with Luanda and the neighboring Bengo province being the hardest hit.

To combat the outbreak, more than 925,000 people have been vaccinated, covering 86% of the targeted population, according to the Health Ministry’s epidemiological report on Monday.
