The authorities in Zimbabwe say the cholera epidemic there is under control.
 

The first outbreak of cholera was in August last year and since then more than 4,000 people have died of the disease. It's thought at least 100,000 Zimbabweans have contracted cholera.
 

The outbreak reached epidemic level because of a chronic lack of healthcare and basic amenities such as clean drinking water in Zimbabwe.
 

Aid organisations emphasize that Zimbabwe's fundamental problems have still not been solved.
