UN Agency Concerned About Haiti’s Health System Amid Conflict

The U.N. humanitarian affairs agency warns Haiti’s health system was “nearing collapse,” .

It cites shortages of staff, equipment, beds, drugs and blood to treat patients with gunshot wounds.

The World Food Programme says trucks carrying vital equipment, medical supplies and food were stuck at the capital’s port.

WFP says it had suspended its maritime transport service due to “insecurity.”
