On top of that, in the 2010 massive Cholera outbreak, there's images of UN sewage trucks dumping waste into the local water ways. While it was responsible for an obscene initial death toll, the country still has this Cholera strain actively being spread, confirmed via genetic analysis. In a country with fragile water filtration infrastructure, a severe lack of vaccinations, and a heavy distrust in the local government, this was a perfect storm which the repercussions are still being felt to this day... Stay away from Haiti UN, you've already done enough!
