Photo share: Cholera first response

Photo: Susana Ferreira/The IRC

From the IRC's Susana Ferreira in Haiti:

An IRC team restocked this oral rehydration kiosk in Kawoussel camp in the Martissant district of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, with 500 sachets of oral rehydration salts, vital for the treatment of dehydration caused by diarrhea, and the first crucial response in any suspected case of cholera. (The group of men off to the side were playing a lively game of dominos.)
