Earthquake Haiti

How sad! I think the huge number of casualties may be due to the fact that most people in Haiti are so poor that they do not live in average houses where probably could have been a little more protected.

"The Sound of Screaming Is Constant" - Haiti Devastated by Massive Earthquake, Desperate Search for Survivors Continues

The death toll rises as Haiti is crushed by a massive 7.0-magnitude earthquake. Bodies lie in the streets as people continue to cry out from underneath the rubble. Little aid has come in as the situation becomes increasingly desperate. The number of dead is almost certainly in the tens of thousands but could be 100,000 or more. We go to Port-au-Prince to get a report from a young American father who is helping to care for the injured in the hotel where he was staying when the quake struck. Ref. Source 1

Report from Haiti: Desperate Call for Aid with Rescue Equipment, Medicine, Food & Water in Short Supply

Much of the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince has been leveled by Tuesday's earthquake, leaving as many as 100,000 people dead and tens of thousands of people homeless. As of Thursday morning, little aid has arrived in Haiti. Planeloads of rescuers and relief supplies are said to be on the way from the US, EU, Canada, Russia and Latin American nations. We go to Port-au-Prince to speak with independent journalist Ansel Herz. Ref. Source 8

US Policy in Haiti Over Decades "Lays the Foundation for Why Impact of Natural Disaster Is So Severe"

We discuss the situation in Haiti following Tuesday's massive earthquake, as well as the history of Haiti, with two guests who have spent a lot of time there: Bill Quigley, the legal director at the Center for Constitutional Rights, and Brian Concannon, director of the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti.

Haiti Earthquake

Its really terrible what's going on there. What I don't understand is how they were able to say that hundreds of thousands are dead so early. Usually a number isn't known for months after.

This has made me so sad. I see the photographs and they make me cry. I want to do something. 100,000 people? I just want to know what I can do.
