We wanted to provide a quick update to all our supporters of the state of COVID in Haiti. Dr. Jacques has seen a significant increase in suspected cases at HAM’s Dumay Clinic, as well as at General Hospital. The Haitian newspaper, Haiti Libre, has also reported in uptick in new cases and deaths from Covid, though testing in Haiti remains terribly limited and the country has still not received a single dose of a Covid vaccine. Dr. Jacques was concerned that the clinic might run low on face masks, so Tracee called out to the Granville community for donations of unused face masks. The response was exceptional and this past week we sent a thousand mask to Haiti and we’re sending another thousand again this week.
Thanks to everyone who donated masks and to all those who consistently support our work in Haiti.
