Key takeaway MSF has launched an emergency response, including providing safe water to households and expanding water storage capacity.
Humanitarian and health needs are increasing due to a fragile health system and newly displaced families. The start of the rainy season raises the risk of disease outbreaks, particularly in areas with limited access to safe water and sanitation. Measles cases have risen and many children have missed routine vaccinations due to displacement and insecurity.
A major cholera outbreak occurred last year in one displacement site, which remains vulnerable. MSF has launched an emergency response, including providing safe water to households and expanding water storage capacity. Further details of the response are available from the source.
