Thank you to all those that responded to my request for information today (they were looking for Albuterol for a little girl).

Our team provided 140 medical check ups today working to support the hospital in Les Anglais.

As we were treating the general population, MSF supported by UNICEF treated the cases of Cholera in a tent outside the hospital.

We were able to provide MSF with Cholera medications in support of their efforts.

Today they had two Cholera deaths.

We are making our way back to continue our mobile clinics in Leogane, Ti Goave, St Marcs, Delmas and Petionville.

Anyone in need of extra supplies and can meet us in any of those locations please let me know.

Also if you have a Cholera Clinic in the area please advise.

Thank you again for your help today,
Lisa
