"Once informed of this situation, the President Martelly has asked me to hurry to come and see the situation. This is what brings me here today to Médor. I am here to witness the President's commitment that works for you." Ms. Silencienne Balthazar Cariétane, General Coordinator of the "Group of Women Organized for the Development of Médor" (GROFODEM), the main defender of the cause of the people of Médor in this case, did not hide her satisfaction with the quick response of the First Lady. The visit of Sophia Martelly was an opportunity to distribute thousands of pairs of shoes [the flea Chique causes lesions mainly in bare feet], clothing, hygiene kits and equipment to treat people with this disease. Recall being notified of this situation in 2013, Ms. Martelly had already sent equipment to treat people with tungiasis. Ms. Martelly has invited all stakeholders to give the best of themselves to eradicate the disease as quickly as possible. HL/ HaitiLibre
