Visceral Leishmaniasis | Kala-azar
Kala-azar is endemic in Upper Nile, Unity,Jonglei, & Kapoeta. Responseinterventions have been complicated byinsecurity, population displacement, poorliving conditions, increasing food insecurity,closure of treatment facilities; and lowtreatment completion rates.
Since the beginning of 2017, a total of2,722 cases including 56 deaths (CFR2.1%); 23 (0.8%) defaulters; 2,339(85.9%) new cases; 119(4.4%) PKDL; and264(9.7%) relapses - all reported from lessthan half of the 23 treatment centers.
In the corresponding period of 2016, a totalof 3,513 cases including 85 deaths (CFR2.6%) and 65(2.0%) defaulters werereported from 21 treatment centers.The majority of cases in 2017 have been reported from Lankien (1,181), Old Fangak (733), Kurwai (201), Chuil (103), Walgak (122), Pagil (62), Malakal IDP (96), Kapoeta (42), and Bunj (45).
The most affected groups include, males [1,322 cases (48.6%)], those aged 5 - 14years [1,112(40.9%) and ≥15years and above[922 cases (33.9%)]. A total of 519 cases (19.1%)] occurred in children <5years.
We are currently in the peak transmission season [September to December]. Hence current efforts by the taskforce entail trainingof health workers, and stocking ample supplies of diagnostics and medicines at all designated treatment centers.
In recent years, we have seen more than expected transmission from September to December in areas affected by conflict,displacement, severe food insecurity, and poor living conditions.

patients. Currently one team is in Kapoeta South and Kapoeta East the next teams will travel to Malakal and Fangak
x IMA/KalaCore in collaboration with WHO/MOH have responded to two suspected cases
(both are children) of KA at Alshaba Hospital in Juba. One of the cases is positive, currently on treatment and the other negative.
x Strengthening coordination amongst partners, there will be KA coordination meeting on the 3rd of Nov 2017.
x Conduct training on the use of IEC materials and conduct KA awareness using the IEC materials in KA endemic areas.

Hepatitis E Virus (HEV)
Hepatitis E virus transmissioncontinues to be reported indisplaced populations.Genotype 1 has been isolatedfrom these outbreaks since2012. This therefore suggestssub-optimal access to safewater and sanitation astransmission drivers.
Cumulatively, a total of 453HEV cases have been reportedfrom Bentiu PoC in 2017 [onecase reported in the week]. (Fig.19). Current response entailsbehavior changecommunication to improvehygiene, access to safe water,and sanitation.Since the beginning of the crisis, 3,693 HEV cases including 25 deaths (CFR 0.68%) reported in Bentiu; 174 casesincluding seven deaths (CFR 4.4%) in Mingkaman; 38 cases including one death (CFR 2.6%) in Lankien; 3 confirmed HEVcases in Melut; 3 HEV confirmed cases in Guit;1 HEV confirmed case in Leer; and Mayom/Abyei [75 cases including 13deaths with 7 HEV PCR positive cases.

Acute Flaccid Paralysis | Suspected Polio
In week 47, nine new AFP cases were reported [five in Eastern Equatoria; one in Unity; one in Upper Nile; one in Warrap; and one in Western Equatoria].
During 2017, a cumulative of 340 AFP cases have been reported countrywide. The annualized non-Polio AFP (NPAFP) rate (cases per 100,000 population children 0-14 years) is 4.57 per 100,000 population of children 0-14 years (target ≥2 per 100,000 children 0-14 years).
Stool adequacy was 89% in 2017, a rate that is higher than the target of ≥80%.
Environmental surveillance ongoing since May2017; with 20 samples testing positive for non-polio enterovirus.

• The top causes of mortality in the IDPs in 2017 include malaria, medical complications ofmalnutrition, pneumonia, perinatal complications, and TB are shown in Table 7.
