PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti -- Hundreds of new cholera cases are appearing in Haiti as aid workers move to contain the outbreak.
U.N. officials say 3,769 cases of the deadly diarrhea have been counted as of Tuesday. Twenty-five more people died bringing the total to 284.
UN-OCHA spokeswoman Imogen Wall says the majority of cases occurred along the central Artibonite River with many new instances in Haiti's central plateau.
That region borders the Dominican Republic, which announced that everyone crossing the border must wash hands and complete a medical form.
Dominican officials increased military surveillance and closed a twice-weekly binational market, sparking protests.
