Cholera Threat Grows in Haiti Slums of Port au Prince
Haiti faces a widening cholera crisis as 250 dead and over 3,000 sickened strain aid groups. In Port au Prince 1.3 million quake survivors live in camps with poor sanitation. Five suspected cases in the capital raise fears the disease could spread through slum tents. Authorities say cases likely originate outside the city. Health officials stress containment through limited movement, safe body disposal, and rapid logistics for medicines and staff. Doctors Without Borders notes diarrhea has been common since the earthquake, while aid workers push hygiene, water purification, and education to prevent transmission.
