Notes
10/26/11 LTel:
This site is only accessible by helicopter or by packing in with a mule during the rainy season. Currently the water levels of the rivers are too high to reach by roads.
Last week, MSPP officials Dr. Dormercant and Dr. Brunot advised "everything is under control & supplies will be delivered by helicopter". Per the charge Nurse, no supplies have been delivered and no word when that will happen. They are in very bad shape with little supplies, no funding from MSPP for salaries and the British Red Cross left 10/15/11. There have been an average of 2 deaths daily from Cholera.
This is a RED ALERT situation with no organizations able to respond. There have been offers of some supplies from Direct Relief however there is no one with the means to deliver the supplies or provide volunteer medical support.

LTel 10/17/11:
Word from Vitalx Max Robert from relatives that there are 60 dead from Cholera and the CTC is overwhelmed. The rains have swollen the rivers and creeks and made it impossible for rural people to get to the clinic for help.
I am working on getting the name of the CTC and a contact there to conduct a working assessment of situation and needs.
Posted request for anyone local to this area to do a hands on assessment on the HEAS.
