UNICEF Angola Situation Report No. 6 (Cholera Outbreak) as of 30 April 2025

**Help End the Cholera Outbreak in Angola! 💦🌎**

As of April 30th, a cholera outbreak in Angola has affected over 12,000 people, including many children, and resulted in the loss of 180 precious lives 🌟. The situation is dire, and it's our duty to take action to save more lives.

Cholera is a preventable and treatable disease, but it can be deadly if left untreated 🚨. Contaminated water sources have led to the spread of the disease, and it's mainly impacting the vulnerable communities in the provinces of Huambo, Bie, Kwanza Sul and Malanje 🔴.

The situation report by UNICEF Angola highlights the need for emergency action 💥! We can make a difference with your help. Communities are struggling to access clean water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities, making it challenging to contain the outbreak 🌊.

Children are among the most vulnerable to cholera, and over 60% of those infected are below the age of 18 ⚠️. Children in these areas are already facing poverty, lack of access to healthcare, and limited opportunities for education 📚.

**Here's why it's so crucial to act now:**

* Over 12,000 people infected, with 180 lost, as of April 30th 🤕
* Cholera can kill within hours if left untreated, so prompt action is vital ⏱️
* Children are disproportionately affected, with over 60% below 18 years old, sadly have lost their lives 🌹
* Poverty, lack of access to clean water, and poor sanitation are major drivers of the outbreak 🌴

Prioritize the health and well-being of children in Angola 🤗! Our urgent support is needed to:

* Increase access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities 🚽
* Strengthen health services, especially in rural areas 🏥
* Promote hygiene and sanitation practices, including handwashing 💆‍♀️
