I don't want to make this political but wtf Ethiopia is sending alcohol, cannibals, low skilled workers, and now diseases why isn't the kulmiye regime closing the borders and standing up to their master?

I agree. This created a big backlash, how can the second biggest city not have enough healthcare facilities. The infected are so much that people
are laying under trees for treatment.

Well that is what you get when you vote for a party that only thinks Somaliland is the Berbera to Wajaale corridor there is no healthcare investments for the area.

Vibrio Cholerae naturally occurs in brackish or salty water as well as in the gut lining of infected humans.

The spread is mostly due to poor quality water in the drought and lack of sanitation.

Yes hygiene is very bad as well. People need to wash their hands or use hand sanitizer everytime before they eat, also avoid hand shakes until the outbreak goes.

When Americans look at Somalia they see anarchy, although they may be wrong on paper, they're right. There is no effective Somali government to be seen. Too much corruption, I hope a new political party emerges in Somaliland, one that is not restricted to a certain qabiil and whose only ideology is horumar.

I agree. Since the services that real governments offer are missing we can't say there is a government whether central or local. They can't even collect the trash from the streets.

The fact that people are dying from cholera in 2017 is fcking embarrassing. Dowlad-ku-sheeg needs to answer for this.

In England and Wales the last time there was cholera outbreak was over 100 years ago.
