Good News For Haiti, It Is Not POLIO

A few days ago I told you about the cholera patients who were paralysed in Port-De-Paix Haiti while recovering and POLIO was a possibility. The good news is, It is NOT Polio.

The lab test results are in and POLIO has been ruled out.

If it is not POLIO then what is it that caused paralysis and the death of 3 of the 4 patients?

Dr. Roc Magloire of Haiti's Health Ministry says that it may be environmental. More tests are being conducted.

Do you know of anything "environmental" that would cause paralysis in Haiti?
