What happened when the earthquake hit Haiti?
Most buildings in Haiti were not built to withstand even a moderate earthquake. Almost all of the structures collapsed or were badly damaged, with significant loss of life. Many victims were buried under rubble and the poor infrastructure of the country did not have the means to rescue them. The government of Haiti was nearly powerless to provide any response to the disaster and depended on foreign assistance, chiefly from the US and Latin American nations.
How did people cope with the Haiti earthquake?
well obviousely a lot of people had died which was spreading disease around causing more people to die, its called aftershock. Also it is very unhygenic so if your stuck under rubble for just 1 day under something heavy your going to get weary and tired and that would most likely cause death. Also all of the power supplys would be turned off or gone and the signal cable things would be turned off because if every one was trying to use it at once it would blow
