there is absolutely no fix for that sh!thole possible as long as hatians live there...

it was a sh!thole before and simply rebuilding it wouldn't change their government/mindset/lifestyle/culture so it would be right back to what it was in no time, a sh!thole...

the simple proof is next door in the D.R. same island, no problems

Cholera is actually an easy to treat, self limited illness. It can be treated for pennies a day with oral replacement therapy. 4 teaspoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, 500 ml purified water. Drink as much as it takes to keep the pulse below 90.

It can be prevented with soap, and clean water.

Am I to understand that you no longer are interested in our Cap-Haïtien time share for Xmas/New Years?

"But the anger is fueled by suspicions that a contingent of Nepalese soldiers brought cholera with them to Haiti and spread the disease from their rural base into the Artibonite River system, where the initial outbreak was centered last month. It is a suspicion shared by some prominent global health experts."
