[originaltext] Health officials in Haiti say nearly 300 people are now known

Health officials in Haiti say nearly 300 people are now known to have died in a cholera outbreak in the country. Although the number of new cases has slowed, hundreds more infections were reported on Tuesday. The UN and aid agencies are boosting prevention efforts in and around the capital, Port-au-Prince, with a public information campaign on hygiene. Experts say that after a long absence from Haiti, the disease could now "settle" and become a local disease. The UN said 25 more people had died of the disease on Tuesday, bringing the total to 284. A total of 3 612 cases have been reported. Health experts say they expect the outbreak will soon lessen but the disease will eventually join malaria and tuberculosis, becoming a local disease in Haiti.
