The two deceased are from Sita Ra Village in Kan Ton Gyi Yin Village, 80 miles from Kyauk Pru, on Rambree Island, an area hit hard by Cyclone Giri.
Another 40 people in the village are suffering from diarrhea since the disease has begun spreading.
A relief worker from Kyauk Pru said, "They received medical treatment as well as medicine from the authorities and an NGO soon after the cyclone. But now the victims in the area have been neglected by the government and NGOs due to the recent election. Because of this neglect, two victims died from the disease."
In the area of Sita Ra Village in Kyauk Pru, 500 people are still living in temporary huts without and roofs or wells.
