12/8/10 HEAS Post from Karen with CCH
Jacmel in Saint Michel Hospital has 120 cases, 20 new in the last 2 days, multiple deaths. The hospital/CTC with MSF only has 40 beds for cholera treatment and is being swamped with patients, so we have been asked to expand the CCH/ IMC ORU to a UTC with at least 25 beds and provide American medical staff to assist/train Haitian staff.
1) Supplies are needed for the UTC
2) US medical professionals are needed.

People are panicking big time!!!
This morning I received information of 4 dead and rising in Marigot & Cayes Jacmel communes (Towns as well) many more cases in "Savane du bois & Tercere apparently patient "zero" is from Belle Anse commune.

The patients are been transferred with difficulties to Hospital St. Michel in Jacmel because public transportation don't want to take them.
