Baseball in the Time of Cholera

Saturday, September 13, 2014

We really hope you will take the opportunity to watch this short film, released in 2012,
about the outset of the 2010 cholera outbreak in Haiti. It is about much more than that, as you will see.


This film will also give you a window into one advocacy area that MCC works on with its partners - which is MINUSTAH and its culpability in the cholera outbreak in Haiti.

------------------------------------------------

After watching the film, some helpful updates for you:

To date, 8,500 people have died from cholera and 700,000 have contracted it.

Despite overwhelming evidence, the UN still disclaims responsibility for meeting victims' demands for compensation.

There are currently three cholera related cases pending against the UN in New York.
