Data from the epidemiological bulletin on the evolution of the outbreak up until Monday show that 11 of the 17 affected provinces registered new infections, with Benguela leading the list with 104 cases out of the 232 reported.
In the period under analysis, there were deaths in the provinces of Bengo and Benguela with one death each.
In the last 24 hours, 209 people were discharged and 1257 others remain hospitalized with cholera.
Authorities are struggling with the cholera outbreak, declared on January 7 of this year, which affects 17 of the country's 21 provinces, accumulating 12,600 cases, mainly in Luanda, the country's capital and the epicenter of the disease, with a total of 5053 infections in the last three months.
Regarding deaths, with a fatality rate of 3.8 percent, Luanda also has 184 deaths of the total reported.
On Monday, the multisectoral committee to combat cholera expressed concern about the population's failure to observe measures to prevent and combat the disease.
"It is not enough for the executive branch to take action at both the central and local levels, but we all need to be committed so that we can overcome this evil," the Minister of State for Social Affairs, Maria Bragança, told the press.
The governor made an appeal to society to comply with hygiene measures.
"Every citizen in the market must be extremely careful when handling food, the way in which waste is disposed of, defecation in the open air, is one of the very serious ways of facilitating the transmission of this disease through vectors," she said.
According to Maria Bragança, despite the distribution of treated water, there is still a "lack of hygiene", making it difficult to combat this outbreak.
"We are certain that with the measures that the Government will now implement, in a more focused manner, prioritizing areas with the highest number of cases, where there is also a higher mortality rate, obviously accompanied by measures to stabilize cases and prevent this situation in other locations, we hope to overcome this cholera outbreak," she said.
