Donald Trump appeared on Sean Hannity's show on Fox News to falsely claim that hundreds of thousands of Haitian immigrants who are coming to the United States have AIDS
At least 304 people have died and 1,800 others were injured as buildings tumbled into rubble after a 7.2-magnitude earthquake hit southwestern Haiti on Saturday morning. As hospitals have become overwhelmed with incoming patients, Prime Minister Ariel Henry said he was doing everything in his power to rush aid to areas where towns were destroyed. The quake struck about five miles from the town of Petit Trou de Nippes, and about 78 miles west of the capital city of Port-au-Prince. According to CNN, a hospital in the southern city of Jeremie has been overwhelmed with intake since the disaster struck, and they've been forced to set up tents in their courtyard for the overflow. "There are a lot of people coming in — a lot of people," an administrator at Hospital Saint Antoine said. "We don't have enough supplies."
On top of this devastating earthquake, the nation of 11 million, is still coping with the political crisis of President Jovenel Moïse who was assassinated on July 7th. The Associated Press reported that one citizen of Port-au-Prince said she was jolted awake by the quake. “I woke up and didn’t have time to put my shoes on,” 34-year-old Naomi Verneus said. “We lived the 2010 earthquake and all I could do was run.” “I later remembered my two kids and my mother were still inside,” she added. “My neighbor went in and told them to get out. We ran to the street.”
