The whole world is doomed. Can't you all see it? Countries like Australia where I am currently living are to be partially destroyed by the highest carbon taxes in the world ( based on global warming lies).

We are all DOOMED (except a few elite think they are not). And anyway Fukashima has to kill us all withinthe next decade but something bigger will happen before then.

Amen

relax it will be alright

Finally a bit of positive news as Haiti has reached consensus on a new Prime Minister after three attempts! Let's hope this develops into better governance on the western side of the island of Hispaniola.

One of the most important issues to deal with is the 'Baby boom" now under way in Haiti.

If you think things are bad in Haiti now, wait until another 1-2 million more mouths have to be fed and clothed


"Baby boom

Another factor fuelling the number of orphans is the growing number of children now being born here. According to a report by the UN Population Fund the country's birth rate has tripled since the earthquake.

In my professional life I have never seen a hospital that works at this volume.”

Felipe Rojas Lopez Midwife

This might explain the name given to a maternity hospital I visited near the city's notorious Cite Soleil slum district. It has become known as the "baby factory".

"We have somewhere between 30 and 40 deliveries a day," says Medecins Sans Frontieres midwife Felipe Rojas Lopez.

"This makes around 1,200 a month. Every day we have full capacity. In my professional life I have never seen a hospital that works at this volume."

It is not only the midwives and doctors who struggle to keep up with it all.

Many mothers discharge themselves hours or even minutes after giving birth and walk away without their babies when staff are not in the room. To my left, a tiny baby is being cradled in the arms of MSF project coordinator, Tara Newell.


"He is three weeks old. He has been with us all that time," she tells me. "He's perfectly healthy and is a baby who loves to be cuddled but his mother abandoned him here on the day that he was born. This happens quite often."

Nobody knows for sure how many children have been left to live on Haiti's impoverished streets. Children's charities estimate that it could amount to 3,000 or more.

Again, the earthquake has swelled their numbers.

Some will have found shelter in one of the many large camps for the displaced, which are still home to about a million people. For those children it could well be a case of out of the frying pan into the fire.

According to a report just published by Amnesty International, children as young as five are being raped in camps set up to rehouse earthquake victims, along with hundreds of women.

Back at the orphanage, Nicole Dieudonne says she is grateful for the help her country has received from all over the world since the earthquake."
