Buenos dias
My lack of reports of the tragedy that afflict us was caused first for my lack of access to the internet and to the excelent job of my fellow correspondents. Congrats to them.
The news is all bad. The death toll reached 73 this morning. some 40 missing, God help them. Comunications are being restored and isolated areas are again reachable. Crops lost and flooded land will bring trouble for everybody for months. So many lost their loved ones and their homes that there are no words to describe the suffering.
Shame on those that failed to warn in time of the approaching storm!!!!
We need all the help the world can give us. To those that allready responded, many thanks. A lot of work is now needed to prevent epidemics in crowded shelters. Water sanitation and prevention of mosquitoes breeding is extremly dificcult under flooding condition.
