The devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti left thousands of people homeless and struggling to find shelter and food. Haitians have shown resilience and strength amidst destitution of unimaginable proportions. But one aspect of their lives has come under heavy criticism – their belief in Voodoo. An estimated 60 million people practice Voodoo worldwide. In Haiti, with a population of 11 million people, there is a saying that 70% of the people are Catholic, 30% Protestant, and 100% Voodoo. Voodoo involves the practice of invoking spirits to help people with life in the present world. A bull sacrifice is an expensive ritual that a Voodoo priest might get the honor of performing once a year. In the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake, during the cholera epidemic which was found to be brought to Haiti by UN peacekeepers, more than 40 Voodoo priests were lynched as they were blamed for bringing the disease upon the masses.

Since July 2018, a deepening political and economic crisis has once again put access to health care in Haiti in jeopardy. While thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets to protest skyrocketing prices of goods, a lack of economic opportunities, and government misuse of funds, the international community has mostly remained silent. According to the World Bank, more than six million Haitians—about 60 percent of the population of the country—live below the poverty line on less than $2.41 (US) per day, and more than 2.5 million fall below the extreme poverty line of $1.23 per day. This means that most families struggle to buy food or pay for medicines or medical care. The uncertainty and unrest have also led to an increase in violence. Soaring prices have impacted the cost of medications and health access for Haitians, making it that much harder for people to get the care they need. Public and private medical facilities have also been badly impacted by the crisis. All of this has led to critical shortages of health care staff that have left Haiti’s health care system on the brink of collapse.
