Twenty-one passengers aboard a train travelling from Kitwe to Livingstone have been taken to a nearby health facility for assessment following reports of suspected cholera cases.
Zambia Railways Limited Manager of Public Relations Sombe Ng’onga said Passenger Train Number 601 was stopped in the Chilanga area to allow health personnel to screen all passengers as a precautionary measure.
Ms Ng’onga stated that the company is working closely with relevant health authorities as the suspected cases undergo assessment, with appropriate precautionary measures in place.
She added that Zambia Railways is also strengthening surveillance on passenger trains to improve the early detection of suspected cholera cases, monitor symptoms and ensure timely intervention.
Ms Ng’onga urged the public to remain calm and rely on official updates from the company and health authorities for verified information.
She said further updates will be issued as confirmed details become available, while protecting the privacy and dignity of those involved.
