A total of 2,718 patients were admitted to the cholera treatment centre at the Ministry of Health’s Kosti Teaching Hospital, supported by MSF, between 20 February and 5 March.

As of Tuesday, the Sudanese Ministry of Health announced that the number of cholera cases in the country since July 2024 had reached 57,135, including 1,506 deaths.
