HAITI'S BABY BOOM
Haiti is approaching the anniversary of the massive earthquake that caused such devastation and took 230,000 lives. It's been followed by a baby boom. Nine months after the disaster, around 1,200 babies a month were being born at just one hospital in Port au Prince. Mike Thomson visits a maternity hospital known as the 'baby factory' where midwives have been coping with unprecedented numbers of pregnant women, and now some of them are infected with cholera.
