The WHO released a statement of findings about the mysterious illness in Angloa. According to WHO, there are high levels of Bromide in patients plasma samples. As of 19 November 2007, over 390 cases had been reported, with over half in children under age 15. The Municipal Hospital in Cacuaco, Angola seems to have the largest collection of cases.
WHO officers are currently working to find the source of the contamination and prevent further damage or illness.

it was good but i need more infomation to make an essay
What more information are you looking for? I am afraid that there is not a lot known about the source of the bromide, or even if that is the confirmed cause. If you need specific information, perhaps I can help you find it?
