Julianna LeMieux, senior fellow in molecular biology at the American Council on Science and Health, discusses the immediate need for the U.N. to financially support and implement a strategy to eliminate cholera in Haiti. She discusses a draft of a strategy called “The National Plan for the Elimination of Cholera in Haiti,” which includes four main points: providing rapid response, effectively treating cholera patients, vaccinating Haiti’s population, and increasing and maintaining access to clean water (10/10).
