A woman suffering from severe dehydration and possibly cholera disease is inspected at a German Red Cross field hospital in the town of Arcahaie, some 40 kms north of Port-Au-Prince. Over 500 people have died of from cholera since mid October with over 7000 documented infections. Fear has risen of the spread of the disease due to the pass of Hurrican Tomas over the island of Hispanola as it has probably spread the water borne disease through the water system and other rivers.
