It says communities with broken and poor infrastructure are more exposed to outbreaks.

Eleven cases have been recorded in Gauteng so far.

"It’s only the untreated water from rivers and other sources like that that that pose a greater threat for many other infections, even outside cholera," said the NICD's Dr Phuti Sekwadi.
