Quote: GlobalHealthReporting.org Malaria | Malaria Cases Increase at Refugee Camp in Kenya [Jun 05, 2006] Malaria cases in the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya increased to 10,000 last month, up from 4,000 in previous months, Vincent Kahi, acting medical coordinator and head of curative services for the International Rescue Committee, said, the East African Standard reports. Kahi said the increase likely is because of recent rains. Although IRC conducts indoor insecticide spraying and provides insecticide-treated nets to children and pregnant women, people sleep outside their houses because of the hot weather, Kahi said. He added that IRC was on alert for a malaria outbreak in the camp, which is located in Turkana District of the Rift Valley Province. Provincial Medical Officer Ambrose Misore said the Ministry of Health is keeping track of the various diseases circulating in the camp where some 92,000 refugees from Southern Sudan and Somalia are located (Makabila, East African Standard, 6/5).
