With 30,597, 15,355 and 13,386 cases respectively, Oromia, SNNPR and Amhara are the most affected regions. There is currently an average of 800 to 1,000 cases per week. The WHO AWD update, published on 27 June, states cumulative cases and deaths of 82,956 and 952 respectively.

Reports from the Ministry indicate that two cases, with one death, were reported on 14 July 2007. The second case is under treatment and close monitoring. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the disease was confirmed by laboratory diagnosis on 30 July 2007.
