Marchand Dessalines Haiti Also Infected by the Cholera Outbreak

A news article released by the Miami Herald also includes Marchand Dessalines as one of the areas infected by the recent Cholera Outbreak in Haiti. Will it reach Gonaives?

The Haitian city of Machand Dessalines is not directly along the Artibonite river but rather north of Pond Sonde, and only miles from Gonaives

Marchand Dessalines is less than 20 kilometers from Gonaives, the largest city in the Artibonite region.

What happens if and when the Cholera outbreak reaches Gonaives?

Will it continue to head north to Cap Haitien

I have one question:

If Cholera is only spread through contaminated water and food, how is it spreading so fast from Mirebalais all the way to Marchand Dessalines in just a few days?

Really...

Marchand Dessalines is nowhere near the Artibonite river.

Please, talk to me!
