DRC08.1215.GOMA077

A woman suffering from cholera lies on a bed at the Virunga cholera treament center in Goma, Eastern Democratic of Congo on Monday December 15, 2008. Mungwiko is the second of eight siblings to be infected with cholera. With the recent displacement of over 300,000 people in DRC's North Kivu province, thousands of people are living in close proximity, in IDP camps or in host families, increasing the stress on already scarce water supply networks and increasing the transmission rate of infectious diseases such as cholera.
