Résumé
Countries in the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) are currently experiencing a resurgence of cholera. As of 31 December 2022, 8 of the 22 Member States in the region - Afghanistan, Islamic Republic of Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen - were grappling with outbreaks of cholera and acute watery diarrhoea (AWD). More than 1 000 000 suspected AWD/cholera cases, more than 7500 laboratory-confirmed cases, and 375 cholera-associated deaths were reported across the region in 2022.
