Today marks the day when one month ago Haiti was hit with a devastating 7.0 magnitude earthquake. Their lives changed within a matter of minutes. Homes were shattered, buildings were flattened and many people lost their loved ones.
Food and water is slowly getting to Haitians now, but an increasing number of medical problems like post trauma, limbs and respiratory infections, gastroenteritis, abdominal pain, pneumonia, and 60% of people are complaining of flu like symptoms and throat infections. Millions are living in unsanitary conditions, cultivating more infections by the day.
