A curious way to count the number of confirmed Covid-19 cases :
Reading reports from the Ministry of Public Health, one would be tempted to believe that Haiti is little affected with only 101 cases confirmed since the start of the epidemic in the country.

However, this figure does not reflect the reality of the situation. In most countries including, among others, the neighboring Republic, the number of cases confirmed since the first case, includes hospitalized cases, cases in isolation treated at home, deaths and cures.

In Haiti for a reason that we do not know, hospitalized cases and those at home (?) Are excluded. If these figures were taken into account, as they should be, it is not 101 cases in Haiti but 919 cases since the appearance of the first case on the national territory that should be considered, ie 9 times more ...
