Haiti - Cholera Epidemic : Canada boosts its emergency aid 04/12/2010 09:26:11
"Our thoughts continue to go out to the people of Haiti as they battle the cholera epidemic," said Minister Oda. "The Government of Canada's response aims to ensure that those struggling to fight this disease have the necessary supplies and personnel for treatment and prevention efforts. We will continue to monitor the situation on the ground." With today's announcement, Canada is providing $1.3 million to World Vision Canada to help up to 120,000 cholera patients with life-saving treatment in specialized health facilities. This amount also help World Vision Canada provide access to clean drinking water and necessary supplies to families in Port-au-Prince, Les Gonaïves, and along the Dominican Republic border areas. Canada is providing $700,000 to Médecins du Monde Canada (MdM Canada) to establish rehydration centres and cholera treatment centres and to provide life-saving medical treatment in Cité Soleil. MdM Canada will also provide further training for community-based and hospital health workers on cholera treatment and prevention measures.
