NYC post-#Sandy MSM narrative widely divergent from onsite reports by citizen relief volunteers. Imagine how it must be for Haiti & Cuba
@curtiskj I kinda got that idea. Still a disgrace. American friend just told me up close this is proof positive "poor don't count for shit"

@asteris People get frustrated easily but 3-4 days to massive aid deployment on an island in flood conditions is actually quite good. -
@curtiskj people allegedly dying & stuffed in makeshift morgues. Then again, I'm half a planet away & inebriated, what do I know? -
@asteris These are the people who died in the storm and bodies found while clearing rubble. They're releasing numbers as they are identified -
@curtiskj contaminated floodwater. Has typhus become a consideration yet? Not so sure all casualties old. Some harrowing reports out there -
@asteris I'm sure dysentery will be an issue for some, but hygiene conditions should get better now that there's a more robust aid presence
