A cholera epidemic in Haiti has killed more than 250 people, the government said on Sunday, but it added the outbreak which has sickened more than 3,000 may be stabilizing with fewer deaths and new cases reported over the last 24 hours.
"We have registered a diminishing in numbers of deaths and of hospitalized people in the most critical areas ... The tendency is that it is stabilizing, without being able to say that we have reached a peak," Gabriel Thimote, director-general of Haiti's Health Department...
"God we pray again for Haiti. We pray for healing for those battling Cholera. We pray for protection against the disease for those exposed to the infection. We pray for a divine intervention to stem this epidemic. God, stop the spread of this horrible affliction. We pray too for wisdom and courage for medical and governmental officials who must make wise decisions regarding this crisis. Bring relief and comfort and eventual healing to all of Haiti. Return this island to the beautiful destiny you have her and her people. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen."
