In Bor, 96 cases including one death (CFR.%) have been reported from Malou in Makuach Payam and other areas within the County. The initial cases in Juba were traced back to 8 May in UN House PoC where the first cholera case was confirmed on June. Most of the cholera cases in Juba have been reported from Gumbo followed by site, Gudele, Juba PoC, and Munuki (Figure ). In Bor, the initial cases were reported from Malou in Makuach Payam. Later, cases were reported from Arek, Block 8, Hai Salam, Achengdii, Langbar and several other areas around the city. Table.

Of the 8, seven (8.%) have occurred in children under five years.

However, following epidemiological investigations on 7 May, cases could be traced back to 8 May. Cholera was eventually confirmed on June in Juba after Vibrio cholerae inaba was isolated from the one of five samples tested in the National Public Health Laboratory. Since 6 June, sustained and consistently increasing community transmission was established in Juba with increasingly more suspect cases reported outside UN House PoC. There are three discernible transmission peaks with the initial peak of cases occurring on June while the subsequent and higher peaks occurred on June, and 6 June before reaching the highest peak on 8 June. Since then, successively shorter transmission peaks have been registered, a trend that is consistent with declining community transmission. In Bor, the initial case occurred on 6 June with increasing cases from week 6 to week 7 when the highest transmission peak was registered. In the subsequent weeks, successively shorter transmission peaks have been registered, a trend that is consistent with declining community transmission.

3 eating food from unregulated roadside food vendors or makeshift markets; and open defecation/poor latrine use. Figure : Spot map for suspect cholera cases by residence in Juba, 8 May 7 July As of 7 July, the sites reporting the majority of cases in Juba include Gumbo, site, Gudele, Juba PoC, and Munuki with satellite cases distributed in seven Payams and 96 villages in Juba County (Figure ). In Bor County, the majority 9 (%) of the cases originated from Malou in Makuach Payam and later from areas like Arek, Block 8, Hai Salam, Achengdii and Langbar.
