ALERT!!! All Hospitals in Port-au-Prince Are Overflowing With Cholera Patients

Port-Au-Prince, Haiti - Medecins Sans Frontieres - Doctors Without Borders - just released this alarming news minutes ago: "It's a really worrying situation for us at the moment. All of the hospitals in Port-au-Prince are overflowing with patients and we're seeing seven times the total amount of cases we had three days ago."


Haiti Medical Alert

So far, 724 people are already dead in Haiti since the cholera outbreak and now it's about to escalate to alarming proportions

As I read the full report by doctors without borders I have to say...

I am really scared!

Doctors without borders says...

... In Cite Soleil... yesterday... we recorded 216 separate cases of cholera arriving at the hospital...

... The total number recorded just 5 days ago was 30...

... Patients are coming from everywhere...
... We are really worried about space...

... If the number of cases continues to increase at the same rate, then we're going to have to adopt some drastic measures to be able to treat people...

... I can easily see this situation deteriorating to the point where patients are lying in the street, waiting for treatment.

At the moment, we just don't have that many options....

Read the full report here.

Ladies and gentlemen, If I may borrow this line from my friend Herold, How can God let this happen to a nation of people who are praying to him every day???

Mwen konprann ou kounie ya foc nou pale epi foc nou ka explike youn lot sa nou vle di le nou pale, se sa yo rele libete ke ancet nou yo te mouri kite pou nou.mwen kwe ke gen anpil bon moun an Haiti petet yo pa pale ou bien yo pa vle antre nan politic pou yo pa victim.moun sa yo nou bezwen cheche yo e pale avec yo pa moyen ke nou genyen.kom ou cite Nom met mwen yan Dieu an esye pa melanje Nom li nan zafe politic an Haiti.Mwen kwe Li renmen nou tout sou la te, men ann eseye viv sa li di nou yo pou nou ka jwen la pe ke li te promet a nou menm yo pandan ke nou ap renmen prochen nou yo.Pou zafe politic nou tap pale ya an nou tout reconet nou fe peyi ya to, paske nou te mal panse le nou tap chwazi Neg nou we ki pase sou pouvoi an Haiti, nou pat chwazi moun avec plan ou ki te gen Vizyon pou peyi.sof ke nou te vote moun pou ka kouri deye lot moun ki te sou pouvoi avan yo.Sa se premie ere nou fe nan politic Haiti, sel bagay nou te dwe fe se te fe aplike la lwa. Si ou te coupab la lwa tap kondane ou epi si ou te just la lwa tap mete ou lib.Map bawou youn Histwa ki vre ;Youn jou manman te di mwen pou kisa mwen pa rentre nan lame D'Haiti e repons pa mwen a li menm mwen te di li, li se premie mounn mwen tap arete.

Sak fe mwen sou moun e mwen eclere se paske mwen li jounal avec Histwa Haiti.Map comanse avec yon parol chef diplomat Ameriken Hilary Clinton te di .Sa sa vle di pou ou an tan ke Ayisyen?

Pou mwen tout neg peyi Haiti nan sa ke yo rele corupsyon, kit li se gouveneman ou bien sa ke yo rele ONG, Organizasyon popule, pati politic, societe civil, paste e ot.tout nan vole sou do pep. Histwa di mwen Toussaint te batay nan can Espagnol yo e nan can France yo pou te pemet esclav yo te vin lib nan tout peyi ya.mwen kwe osi Toussaint te connen conbien Indiens ou aboriginals Espagnol te touye nan peyi ki te 9 milion e li konnen sa ki ta pral pase avec neg noir yo tou, si yo pa batay pou pran libete yo.Apre li fini gen batay sa avec tout heros nou yo, yo proclame peyi Haiti lib e yo fe lwa pou peyi ya e yo di nan lwa sa yo moun sa yo pa gen dwa pile sol Haiti avec zam nan men yo.Nou viole tout lwa sa yo e se sa ki fe neg sa yo vini avec tout sot de organizasyon pou maske pep la, bagay ki pa menm ecziste nan peyi yo pou voye al ramase kob ke yo prete Haiti pou developman ke yal pran anko san ke yo pa fe anyen.

Wow this is the worst outbreak I ever seen and I hope I don't ever see anything like this again.

Yes our country is going through a lot in the past couple of years.

I think God wouldn't put us in it if we couldn't get through it. Let's keep our heads high no matter how bad it get, let's stay the good people we have always been and stick together and get this past us.

Eternal rest grant unto them, and with the mercy of Christ May they rest in peace.

It is easy to blame GOD for everything, but men created this cholera epidemic and THE ALMIGHTY has nothing to do with our misery in Haiti.

It is sad, because innocents are paying for the guilties and we are all guilty one way or another.
