The deaths were recorded between November 10 and 25 in the Panzi health zone, Kwango province. Symptoms include fever, headache, cough and anemia, provincial Health Minister Apollinaire Yumba told reporters over the weekend.

The province’s deputy governor, Rémy Saki, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that between 67 and 143 people had died.

Yumba advised the population to exercise caution and refrain from any contact with corpses to avoid any contamination. He called on national and international partners to send medical equipment to deal with the health crisis.
