Introduction

On the evening of January 12, 2010, a massive earthquake hit Haiti, destroying large chunks of the country and its capital, Port-au-Prince, killing hundreds of thousands of Haitians, injuring hundreds of thousands more, and leaving millions homeless. Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) had been working in Haiti since 1991 and was thus already on the ground. Moments after the earth shook, in fact, MSF staff was treating patients.
