GENEVA, Switzerland - There are no more oral cholera vaccine s left in the global stockpile, the World Health Organization said Friday, with the shortage jeopardizing work to stop the disease's spread.Global vaccine production is operating at full capacity, but demand is outpacing supply, the UN health agency said in its monthly situation report."As of October 14, the global stockpile of oral cholera vaccine is depleted, with no remaining doses available," the WHO said.
The WHO said the mortality increase might be partially down to where the outbreaks are located.Those include conflict-affected areas where healthcare access has been severely compromised and areas hit by flooding.Since last month's report, new cholera outbreaks have been reported in Niger and Thailand , pushing the total number of affected countries in 2024 to 30, said the WHO.In September, 47,234 new cholera cases were reported from 14 countries.
