A patient succumbed to the disease on Thursday. The woman died in El Jinan, El Gallabat West locality, where three people were also infected with the disease. A source in the health sector of El Gedaref state reported that from Friday to Monday, 30 cases of cholera were reported in El Saraf El Ahmer, and more than seventeen cases in El Mahalla; both in El Gallabat locality. There have been no deaths among the newly infected people, he told Radio Dabanga. Another two cases emerged in El Saboni in El Gallabat on Thursday, after a hospital received three infected people in El Gallabat East on Wednesday. On Monday, state health authorities deployed teams of doctors and nurses to the affected areas in an attempt to curb the spreading of infections. The first week of March showed a slight decrease <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=764b7db87d&e=5ffa50b614> in the number of cholera infections in El Gedaref, although a child died <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=b86f3833ad&e=5ffa50b614> of cholera in El Gallabat East. “Infection rates will be growing in the coming rainy season if the Ministry continues to ignore its outbreak,” a health source predicted last month. Starting the prevalence of cholera infections in parts of eastern Sudan and El Gezira seven months ago, the Sudanese Health Ministry has persisted in calling the disease 'acute watery diarrhoea' instead of cholera.

A convoy of vehicles carried 976 pupils from Rokoro to Zalingei locality so they could safely partake in the Sudanese certificate exams, which started this week. One of the vehicles suffered a sudden malfunction because of the rugged road, a teacher reported, leading it to overturn and land upside down. The accident resulted in the death of one of the children. 48 pupils, including several in a critical condition, were transferred to Nyala hospital. Six children remained in the hospital for treatment on Monday. People in central Jebel Marra are reportedly “in shock” by the news, the teacher told Radio Dabanga. Each March, basic and secondary school children participate in Sudan's examinations, and schools in the conflict areas of Jebel Marra usually transfer their pupils <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=6819e13575&e=5ffa50b614> to localities in South or Central Darfur for the duration of the examination period. For example 2,100 pupils were transferred from Deribat to Nyala because of the worsening security situation, an education official told Radio Dabanga. The Jebel Marra Mountains span North, Central and South Darfur, and last year were the scene of clashes between government forces and a rebel faction, displacing tens of thousands of people. *More news from Radio Dabanga:* *Rallies for power supply to Sudan's northern towns* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=42f1e059f0&e=5ffa50b614> March 21 - 2017 DONGOLA / KHARTOUM People from the Northern state carried out protests to demand the delivery of hydroelectricity to villages in Dalgo locality and an investigation into the funds' committee on Monday... *USAID, WFP receive aid shipments for South Sudan* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=90b986a1c4&e=5ffa50b614> March 20 - 2017 PORT SUDAN The American Chargé d'Affaires to Sudan appealed to armed movements in Sudan to allow the private delivery of humanitarian aid in South Kordofan and Blue Nile states.
