== TEXT “Haiti” to “90999″ – INSTANT 10$ DONATION! ==JOIN: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Haiti-E…Desperately needed aid from around the world slowly made its way Thursday into Haiti, where supply bottlenecks and a leadership vacuum left rescuers scrambling on their own to save the trapped and injured and get relief supplies into the capital.The international Red Cross estimated that 45,000 to 50,000 people were killed in Tuesday’s magnitude-7 earthquake. “We have already buried 7,000 in a mass grave,” Haiti’s president said.President Barack Obama announced that “one of the largest relief efforts in our recent history” is moving toward Haiti, with thousands of troops and a broad array of civilian rescue workers flying or sailing in to aid the stricken country — backed by more than $100 million in relief funds.To the Haitians, Obama promised: “You will not be forsaken.”The nascent flow of rescue workers showed some results: A newly arrived search team pulled a U.N. security worker alive from the organization’s collapsed headquarters, where about 100 people are still trapped. He stood, held up a fist in celebration, and was helped off to a hospital.But thousands of Haitians, living or dead, remained buried beneath collapsed buildings, leaving friends and relatives to claw at the wreckage, often with bare hands, in attempts to free them.Many of those pulled out dead still lay in the street, often covered by a white cloth, in 81-degree heat. Some people dragged the dust-covered dead along the roads toward the morgue.There, people came to hunt for relatives in a macabre sea of hundreds of bodies just a few feet where badly wounded quake victims sat awaiting a doctor from the neighboring hospital.

MSF teams are working on medical projects Haiti. They are treatinghundreds of injured. They are setting up clinics in tents to replace their own damaged medical facilities. A massive earthquake struck the Caribbean island of Haiti. Thousands are feared dead with many more seriously injured. The epicentre of the 7.0 magnitude earthquake was just 16 kilometres from the capital Port-au-Prince. Much of the city is made up of slums and poorly constructed houses that would not be able to withstand an earthquake. The scale of the disaster is not yet known as all communication lines are currently down. But there are reports that homes, government buildings and hotels have collapsed, with people still being dug out of the rubble. The earthquake struck at 5pm local time on Tuesday 12 January 2010, and many people are spending the night on the streets. Several strong aftershocks caused further chaos and panic. Poorly resourced hospitals are struggling to cope with the large numbers of injured people and there is an urgent need for emergency medical care, food, clean water and shelter. Haiti is the poorest country in the Western hemisphere, and struggles from endemic poverty, food shortages and violence. It has suffered from many recent natural disasters including serious hurricanes and storms in 2008. MSF is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971. It provides medical aid in nearly 60 countries to people whose survival is threatened.

San Juan, Puerto Rico (CNN) — A humanitarian mission to aid Haitian earthquake victims turned into a major embarrassment in Puerto Rico on Friday as pictures emerged of doctors drinking, mugging for cameras and brandishing firearms amid the victims’ suffering.The ethics committee of the commonwealth’s medical board said it was launching an investigation into whether those involved should be disciplined.Puerto Rican Secretary of Health Lorenzo Gonzalez called the episode “a sad situation.”"The poor judgment of a few basically damages the beautiful effort that many others have put in place in terms of providing good medical care,” Gonzalez said. “When I saw the pictures, I was very concerned that they have taken pictures of people without any consent.”You all can read more about this on this link:San Juan, Puerto Rico (CNN) — A humanitarian mission to aid Haitian earthquake victims turned into a major embarrassment in Puerto Rico on Friday as pictures emerged of doctors drinking, mugging for cameras and brandishing firearms amid the victims’ suffering.The ethics committee of the commonwealth’s medical board said it was launching an investigation into whether those involved should be disciplined.Puerto Rican Secretary of Health Lorenzo Gonzalez called the episode “a sad situation.”"The poor judgment of a few basically damages the beautiful effort that many others have put in place in terms of providing good medical care,” Gonzalez said. “When I saw the pictures, I was very concerned that they have taken pictures of people without any consent.”.”You all can read more about this on this link:http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/america…
