We have thus prohibited the use of borehole water for drinking purposes at the school. When the outbreak was reported, we dispatched our rapid response team, which comprises city health officials, health experts from the office of the Provincial Medical Director as well as those from Gweru District. They are still on the ground and what we have established is that the outbreak did not spread outside the school, Sekanhamo dismissed reports that the outbreak was caused by Gweru City Council water noting that the outbreak did not spread outside of Thornhill High.
