Story of the Week #798: TUESDAY August 24, 2021: ‘DESPERATE Haiti Can’t Catch A Break’ by ZUMA Pulizer Prize Photographer Carol Guzy who is in Haiti witnessing first hand the situation, Guzy received her fourth Pulitzer for her searing coverage of the Haitian earthquake back in 2010: In the aftermath of the devastating 7.2-magnitude earthquake that hit Haiti on 14 August, authorities report more than 2,200 people dead, at least 344 missing, over 12,000 injured and upwards of 130,000 homes damaged or destroyed. Under the leadership of the Government, humanitarian teams are scaling up their response efforts in all quake-affected areas, but organizations are stretched thin from responding to multiple simultaneous crises in the country. The devastation is centered in the country’s southwestern area, where health care has reached capacity and people have lost homes and loved ones. Patience was running out in the Western Hemisphere’s poorest nation. Haitians already were struggling with the coronavirus, gang violence, worsening poverty and the July 7 assassination of President Jovenel Moïse when the quake hit.
