Patients and families wait outside St. Nicolas Hospital on Oct. 21, 2010, in St. Marc, in the north of Port-au-Prince, amid a cholera epidemic that has claimed 135 lives and infected 1,500 people over the last few days. The epidemic has not yet reached the major displaced persons camps in and around the capital, Port-au-Prince, which was ravaged by a 7.0 earthquake in January that left 1.2 million people homeless. But officials fear an outbreak in densely populated tent cities that have poor sanitation and meager medical facilities has the potential of unleashing a public health disaster.

Members of a Haitian Ministry of Health body-collection team unload 14 bodies as they dispose the victims of the cholera epidemic in Titanyen, the site of a mass grave for the victims of the January earthquake, on Nov. 17, 201,0 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The bodies had been collected from homes, the street, and a hospital as Haiti's cholera epidemic has killed more than 1,000 and sickened thousands. Unable to find other sites to dispose of the bodies, they ended up at the Titanyen site where, after negotiating with the local mayor, they were able to dump the bodies in anticipation of them being buried. Doctors say poor sanitary conditions after January's earthquake made the country vulnerable to cholera, which is caused by bacteria transmitted through contaminated water or food.

Cemetery workers cover the grave of Serette Pierre, who recently died of cholera, Oct. 29, 2010, in Back D' Aguin, Haiti. Pierre died the same day she contracted cholera, leaving three children without parents. Haiti, one of the poorest nations in the western hemisphere, has been further unsettled by an outbreak of cholera, which has so far killed over 300 people. The epidemic has affected the central Artibonite and Central Plateau regions with 3,612 cases so far on record. Authorities believe the outbreak is contained, but has not yet peaked. There is also fear that the deadly diarrheal disease could migrate to the sprawling camps for the hundreds of thousands of Haitians displaced by the January 2010 earthquake.
