In Haiti, which was still recovering from both the 2010 earthquake and the ongoing cholera outbreak, at least 52 people have died, and an estimated 200,000 were left homeless as of late Monday October 29, as a result of four days of ongoing rain from Hurricane Sandy. Reports of significant damage to Port-Salut were received as rivers overflowed their banks. In the capital of Port-au-Prince whole streets were flooded by the heavy rains and "the whole south of the country is underwater". Most of the tents and buildings in the city's sprawling refugee camps and the Cité Soleil neighborhood were flooded or leaking, a repeat of what happened earlier in the year during the passage of Hurricane Isaac. The United Nations warned that flooding and unsanitary conditions could lead to a cholera epidemic once again two years after a cholera epidemic in 2010 sickened 600,000 people and killed more than 7,400. In addition, crops were also wiped out by the storm” and the country would be making an appeal for emergency aid.
