News; destitute survivors

Two days after the 7.0 magnitude quake, the horror of the disaster is
undiminished. In Port-au-Prince, sheet-draped bodies remain unclaimed, and
untold numbers of people are trapped in rubble or missing and feared dead. The
ranks of headphones the injured
seeking scarce medical attention continue to grow. Seemingly countless people
lack food and shelter, leaving streets packed with increasingly hungry,
destitute survivors. Even among those whose homes did not collapse, fear of
aftershocks has led many to remain outdoors.Haitian President Rene Preval
commented on the situation on NBC television's Today program.
