The Hill In helping Haiti, we must not repeat the mistakes of the last decade BY WILFREDO R. MATIAS, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR - 05/24/24 A Haitian boy stricken with cholera stands with his mother at a hospital in the Cite Soleil slum of Port-au-Prince on November 10, 2010. Aid groups fought to halt the spread of cholera in Haiti’s teeming capital, where makeshift camps crammed with earthquake survivors are ripe ground for the epidemic to take hold. The outbreak erupted in the Artibonite River valley in central Haiti in mid-October and initially seemed to have been contained, but the toll from the chronic diarrheal disease has since soared to 643 dead and just under 10,000 people being treated in hospital.
