The health team in Zimbabwe has good news about cholera in Kariba. They worked hard to stop the sickness from spreading, and many groups helped them do this.

The first sick person showed up in Kariba back in November. After that, 126 people got sick. But the health workers did a great job helping them. Almost everyone who got sick got better. The doctors say 99 out of 100 people recovered.

Dr Celestino Dhege runs health services in that area. He says everyone worked together to beat the sickness. The whole town pitched in to help.

Things look much better these days. No one has gotten sick in the last five days. But there is a sad part to the story. The first person who got cholera was a 35-year-old woman from Gatche-Gatche. The doctors tried to help her. They sent her home after treatment. But she died six hours later.

The health team keeps checking to make sure the sickness doesn't come back. They want to keep everyone safe and healthy.
