ABOUT 10 people have died from suspected measles while several others are battling with the disease following an outbreak in Sinazongwe district after a group of Mount Zion Church members from Zimbabwe allegedly transmitted the ailment.

The belief by the church not to use conventional medicines has not helped the situation, as those infected with the disease are being locked in houses and treated using a herbal concoction.

The church has gone further to secretly bury eight of the victims in the late hours of the night.
