4 Outbreak preparedness and response Flood and rain fall in 2010 It is noted that the rainfall this year is generally less than that reported in 2007 and less than the long term mean. Rains and floods have affected major parts of Sudan putting states situated along the River Nile and its tributaries at an increased risk. As of September 2010, information released by Government (HAC) indicates that recent rains and floods have affected a total of 13 states in North Sudan. At least houses have been totally destroyed while 4715 have been partially destroyed. Among this, six states are the worst affected (Khartoum, Gezira, Sennar, Red Sea, White Nile (Jebalain and Salam localities) and River Nile (Atbara and Shendi localities) {Source: Health Cluster Office-WHO Khartoum}. Conjunctivitis epidemic in South Kordofan SMoH in South Kordofan reported conjunctivitis epidemic in the western area of the State. A total of more than 45 cases were reported from Miram and Muglad area with no fatality reported. The SMoH team, who investigated this matter, suggested a relationship of this outbreak with the one reported earlier from Aweil in south Sudan (about 40 Km from Miram). Epidemiology department, SMOH received information about spreading of the epidemic to other localities in the state. The investigating team recommended training of health cadres, intensify health education activities, organizing mobile team for active surveillance/field diagnosis and treatment of cases and availing of drugs. Environmental health activities Water quality In South Darfur, water quality monitoring was conducted in Nyala North sector. During the monitoring activity, samples were analyzed from different sources (households, donkey carts and tankers) showed that free residual chlorine are ranging between 83% and 100% while only 8% of the samples showed zero reading. In North Darfur, water quality monitoring activities were simultaneously conducted in camps. In Kassab camp, 20 samples were tested for bacteriological analysis where 50% showed contamination. Moreover, 1 of the 4 samples tested from hand pumps was contaminated. Chlorination and disinfection activities were conducted in the camp. In Kabkabiya camp, KSCS/Oxfam America tested 10 water samples for bacteriological analysis (3 contaminated) and cleaned and chlorinated 11 open wells. WHO supported the Water Quality Laboratory of Academic College with kits and re-agents for regular testing of Geneina hospital water supply. Samples taken from the inlet and the tower of Geneina hospital were tested for FRC and results showed nil, total coli form was 110 while faecal coli form was 8. In line with this, MoH was requested to nominate a focal point for chlorinating all water sources at theel Geneina hospital. WASH partners started household water treatment in Shangli tobia and Kabakabiya camps where 100 persons were trained as community mobilizers while 29 persons were trained for water quality monitoring. The trained persons are expected to provide technical support to communities in targeted areas. Capacity building In Gereida (South Darfur), a 3-day training session on safe health care waste management in Gereida was conducted targeting 30 medical doctors, medical assistants, laboratory assistants, nurses and midwives from SMoH, MERLIN and ARC. In Zalengei (West Darfur), 30 persons were trained on health care waste management. Participants were from NCA, MoH and the teaching hospital. The training course was supported by WHO. EPRP for rainy season To support the health care waste management in secondary care settings, WHO provided Tulus hospital with 20 waste containers which are properly colour coded to ensure proper disposal of potentially infectious wastes. To improve access to safe drinking water in rural areas in North Darfur, SMOH distributed chlorine and FRC monitoring tools (pool testers). To strengthen this, WHO supported the training of 6 public health officers on acceleration of water and sanitation activities. Coordination In North Darfur, ORS corners in IDP camps and rural areas were reactivated after concerns on the rise of number of cases of water and sanitation related diseases were raised during a Watsan coordination meeting. WHO is coordinating with SMoH and UNAMID to improvement of the general waste management system in Elfasher town. 4
