Hurricane Tomas hit the western tip of Haiti causing destruction and flooding of many refugee camps. Aid workers are trying to control the spread of the cholera outbreak that could happen due to this latest disaster. To date, at least 4 people have been killed by the storm with at least 2 more still missing. In addition, 440 have died and 6700 have been hospitalized do the the cholera outbreak. The recent flooding is likely to cause a spread of bacteria and a lack of hygiene due the lack of clean water and the now flooded streams. The U.S. and other countries are providing aid and working on the best ways to provide money to begin the rebuilding of the capital city, Port-Au-Prince.
There is not bias in this article. It tells what is going on and what the people of Haiti and the the U.S. aid people think, so it gives the opinion from both views.
