It is also stressed that they probably exist “Critical shortages” of medicines in Hersonissoswhile Mariupol “He is at risk of a major cholera outbreak.” It is noted that isolated cases have been reported in the area since May.
The British media reminds that Ukraine suffered one major cholera epidemic in 1995 and since then it has experienced small ups and downs, especially around the coast of the Sea of Azov, where Mariupol is located.
It is added that the medical services in Mariupol are probably already close to collapse, which means that a large outbreak of cholera in the city will further pay for these services.
