U.N report that cholera deaths near 500

A cholera outbreak in Zimbabwe has killed at least 484 people since August, according to the UN. More than 11,700 cases of cholera have been recorded over the same period, an update from the UN office for humanitarian affairs said. The cholera outbreak has affected most of Zimbabwe's regions. Its spread has been aided by the collapse of Zimbabwe's health and sanitation systems amid a prolonged economic and political crisis.
