The United Nations acknowledged on Thursday that it played a role in the 2010 Haiti cholera outbreak that has killed nearly 10,000 Haitians and infected more than 770,000.
[...] US courts have repeatedly rejected complaints filed by the families of cholera victims in New York, where the UN is headquartered, due to the world body's immunity.
A UN official quoted by the AFP news agency as saying that "the UN legal position has not changed".
Cholera, which is transmitted through contaminated drinking water and causes acute diarrhoea, is a major challenge in a country with poor sanitary conditions.
According to the UN, Some 72 percent of Haitians have no toilets at home and 42 percent still lack access to drinking water.
