“Psychologists have treated 69,000 earthquake victims at MSF medical facilities and in camps. “Four months after the earthquake, many Haitians still feel the earth move, and the noise is ever-present,” says MSF psychiatrist, Dr. Maryvonne Bargues. “We see many people who are experiencing an onset of acute psychosis. (…) In April, MSF treated 81 victims of sexual violence in its Port-au-Prince facilities. Care includes psychological and medical assistance, specifically including vaccination against Hepatitis B and HIV/AIDS preventive treatment.”
