photos - destruction - part 4

Life goes on amidst the rubble. People need to survive . Street vendors are setting up shop where they can.

The US military was guarding the front of General Hospital.

Several pharmacies in front of General Hospital were destroyed or damaged.

Money transfer businesses were the first to open all across the city. Each one had large lineups of people. Family overseas are helping haitians continue on here in Port-au-Prince by sending money. There are not many formal banks open.

Heavy equipment is now being used to clear all the rubble and to take down unstable buildings.
