Up to 16,000 people are now known to be suffering from acute watery diarrhoea, compared with 7,000 when Iraq was put on formal alert. Ten people have died so far from the epidemic in the Sulaymaniyah, Kirkuk and Erbil provinces where the first cases were reported last month. http://www.hindustantimes.com/StoryPage/StoryPage.aspx?id=966f04c8-37f7-48cf-934d-e999dab5962f&&Headline=Cholera+epidemic+in+Iraq+intensifies
