The Ministry of Health and Child Care (MOHCC) has alerted the public to the emergence of 13 new suspected typhoid cases in Zimbabwe. According to the Disease Surveillance Report, which covers the week ending on May 5, 2024, no deaths have been reported thus far.

Typhoid, a waterborne disease, has been a persistent problem in Zimbabwe, particularly in the capital city of Harare. In recent years, several outbreaks have been reported in high-density suburbs, including Glen Norah and Glen View.

The latest reported cases are a cause for concern, as typhoid can be a serious and life-threatening disease if not treated promptly and effectively. The MOHCC has urged the public to take precautions to prevent the spread of the disease, including drinking safe water, washing hands regularly, and seeking medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.

Symptoms of typhoid include fever, headache, and abdominal pain, and can lead to severe complications if left untreated. The MOHCC has assured the public that it is working to contain the outbreak and prevent further spread of the disease.

Residents of Harare and surrounding areas are advised to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions to protect themselves and their families from this potentially deadly disease.
