The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) has disclosed that over 30,000 suspected cases of cholera have been reported in 22 states and the federal capital territory (FCT) in seven months.<\/p>\n

This was disclosed by the director-general of the NCDC, Chikwe Ihekweazu via a statement released on Monday.<\/p>\n

According to the DG of NCDC<\/a>, more than 800 deaths have also been recorded within the period under review.<\/p>\n

While noting that the federal government is working on urgent response efforts to address the situation, Ihekweazu urged state governments to endeavour to improve access to better living conditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) is leading the national response to an outbreak of cholera across states in Nigeria. This has been exacerbated by poor access to clean water, open defecation, poor sanitation, and hygiene,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n

\u201cBetween the 1st of January and 1st of August 2021, 31,425 suspected cases of cholera, 311 confirmed cases and 816 deaths have been reported from 22 states and FCT. The affected states are Benue, Delta, Zamfara, Gombe, Bayelsa, Kogi, Sokoto, Bauchi, Kano, Kaduna, Plateau, Kebbi, Cross River, Niger, Nasarawa, Jigawa, Yobe, Kwara, Enugu, Adamawa, Katsina, Borno and FCT.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing an increase in the number of cholera cases, the National Cholera Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) was activated on the 22nd of June 2021. The EOC, which is hosted at NCDC, includes representation from the Federal Ministries of Environment and Water Resources, National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA), World Health Organization (WHO) and partners.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe National Cholera EOC has led the deployment of Rapid Response Teams to support the most affected states -\u2013 Benue, Kano, Kaduna, Zamfara, Bauchi and Plateau States. Additionally, NCDC and its partners have provided states with commodities for case management and laboratory diagnosis, materials for risk communications, response guidelines among other support. A reactive oral cholera vaccine (OCV) campaign led by NPHCDA was conducted in Bauchi LGA, Bauchi State from 24th to 28th July 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut none of these medical interventions will solve the underlying issues leading to cholera outbreaks. Cholera is a waterborne disease, and the risk of transmission is higher when there is poor sanitation and disruption of clean water supply. The wrong disposal of refuse and practices such as open defecation endanger the safety of water used for drinking and personal use. These lead to the spread of water-borne diseases such as cholera. Without proper water, sanitation, and hygiene (WaSH), Nigeria remains at risk of cholera cases and deaths.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe long-term solution for cholera control lies in access to safe drinking water, maintenance of proper sanitation and hygiene. We continue to advocate to State Governments to prioritise action for solutions that ensure access to and use of safe water, basic sanitation and good hygiene practices in communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also advised Nigerians to take action by ensuring that their environments are kept clean, and urged those who exhibit symptoms of cholera to seek medical attention immediately.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdditionally, we urge Nigerians to keep their environments clean, only drink or use water that is boiled and stored safely, ensure food is cooked and stored in a clean and safe environment, avoid open defecation and wash their hands regularly with soap and running water,\u201d Ihekweazu said.<\/p>\n

\u201cCholera is preventable and treatable; however, it can be deadly when people who are infected do not access care immediately. Nigerians are advised to visit a health facility immediately, if they have sudden onset of profuse watery diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, and weakness.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the NCDC continues to work with partners to lead the health-sector response to cholera outbreaks, we call for an urgent improvement in access to clean water, proper sanitation and hygiene.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
