Cholera Outbreak Hits Zimbabwe As Negroes Look To Flee To The UK
Posted on: 2008-12-16 00:10:37 According to the BBC, Ms Smith said some people were obtaining fake passports from neighbouring countries where, unlike Zimbabwe, citizens do not need UK entry visas. Cholera has already killed 800 and affected 16,000 people in Zimbabwe, according to the United Nations. In Angola, some 10,000 people have been hit, with 229 deaths, while Mozambique has more than 8,000 registered cases and 93 deaths. The crisis has sparked a major Red Cross appeal, which hopes to supply community-based health services, water, sanitation and hygiene projects. In the past two weeks, Red Cross volunteers have reached more than 11,000 people with health and hygiene information. |
