Stanley Gama, the spokesman for the City of Harare, has announced that a case of cholera was found in a squatter camp close to Longchen Plaza yesterday. He says the patient is a 29-year-old man who lives alone. The man has been using water from a nearby stream for drinking and other household needs without treating it first. Gama believes the cholera likely came from a local source, as the man has not traveled recently.

The City of Harare is asking residents to be careful, especially about drinking untreated borehole water, which can contribute to the spread of cholera. They want people to get treatment early if they think they might have cholera, to help prevent deaths. Treatment is available for free at all Council clinics.

The City also suggests that residents avoid unnecessary gatherings for now. They're encouraging everyone to let the nearest clinic know right away if they suspect any cases of cholera or any deaths from the disease. Gama says by working together, they can help stop the spread of cholera infections in the community.
