New cholera cases in Haiti

Officials in Haiti are reporting a new outbreak of cholera cases in several towns in the impoverished countries.



Earlier this week, officials had reported that the cases were slowing.



A day after those claims, Jamaican Prime Minister reported that there were 25 deaths and more than 600 new cases in a 24-hour period.



Now officials they say a number of new cases have been detected in towns near the capital Port au Prince.



More than 300 people have so far died in the outbreak in rural Haiti, and more than 4,000 patients are being treated for the intestinal infection.
