An outbreak of measles in the Democratic Republic of Congo has killed almost 320 people and infected more than 20,000, the United Nations has said.
"The toll is heavy and worrying: since January 1, 2015, more than 20,000 cases of measles have been registered in Katanga Province alone" and "almost 320 people have died," the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a statement this week.
In 2013, 9,400 cases of measles were registered in Katanga, compared with more than 12,000 the following year.
