the likely source of the disease in haiti. but the one thing that hasn't happened is that the un hasn't accepted any kind of liability for bringing the epidemic to this country. in fact, at this point, they still won't even talk about it. it's been more than two years since cholera appeared in haiti and we're driving into one of the most isolated areas of the country. communities up here in the mountains surrounding artibonite river are almost completely cut off from basic services. clinics, running water, even roads here are almost non-existent. up here, catching any kind of disease is a serious matter, one that kills as quickly as cholera can be a death sentence. >> it is impossible, really, to imagine how somebody could get along paths like this to medical facilities within a few hours to save lives from cholera. this is the kind of scenario here, and the reality is that many of them don't - and we're on our way now to a funeral at the very top of this mountain for a man who didn't make it. when he died from cholera, farius

i was in haiti during the epidemic. this place is so caught off. the thing it's so ironic, so colora had come into this village but they were cut enough that they couldn't get any resources to help them and that just -- it really struck me an uneven development where they had one type of water coming down from the hills that the belgiums had built so when i came there, this pipe of -- they brought the sole drinking water and it was supposed to be up on a cliff and because there's so much erosion in haiti and slowly falling all the way down to sea level and storms are coming in and hitting the pipe, it had about 32 holes in it and nothing to patch it up, they were using cloths and just wrapping it around. so the water was just dripping out and they had tiny trickle of fresh water coming into the town and that was all of the reason because everyone was getting buckets and leaving it out and when you only have a bucket of water you don't give up eating and cooking, you give up washing as much. to me those are simple things like clean water and aid tha

i was in haiti during that cholera epidemic. we traveled may be 50 miles from the capital but it took about eight hours because this place was so cut off, the thing thing that was so ironic is they were not so caught off that they cannot get it cholera, but they were cut off enough that they cannot get any resources to help them. that just really struck me, in uneven development where they had one type of water coming down from the hills that the belgium's had built 20 years ago as an aid aids project. never give them any support for maintaining it, no services, no resources, no resources no know-how on how to maintain it. when i came there this pipe, they brought the sole drinking water to this remote community, was supposed to be on a cliff and because they're so much erosion in haiti it has slowly fallen all the way down to sea level. they had about 32 holes in it and nothing to patch it up. they were literally were literally using cloth and wrapping it around, so the water was dripping out, they had this tiny trickle of fres

just a couple hundred miles off the coast of florida in haiti. so i studied the history of cholera and went to places where new pathogens are emerging. south china, hong kong, port of prince, and elsewhere to look at how the story of cholera could shed light on what is going to happen to the history of the other pathogens. and the history of cholera is indicative of what is happening with the other pathogens. cholera came from the environment like a lot of new pathog pathogens today. 50% of new pathogens are coming out of animals and wildlife today. cholera did, too. it as a marine bacteria and lives in places like in bangladesh where the major rivers drain. it is a huge wet land with water half salty, warm and alkaline and perfect to grow. it is a helpful inhabitant in its environment. people didn't live for a long time in areas like that were mangrove swamps. there is crocodiles, cyclones, tigers. but that changed when they chopped down the trees and90% have settled over the century. sudden people are in close intimate contact with cholera and

my question is, and not to pick on haiti, but i will. how do we collaborate as donors? whether it is the usa, cdc or these countries to ensure that an area we are already working in control or condos for hiv that we are not re-creating the wheel or adding a complex program. haiti has a big condom investment program. how do you leverage that with zika investment? >> we have practical recommendations and the importance of the collaboration with the international governments. >> let me take the second one. -- i agree time for with what they said about the phenomenal success of fars and the malaria initiative. i think the times for malaria initiatives is behind us. they were right for the time. they need to keep going. there are several reasons why that time has passed. a lot of which you articulated. one of them is that we cannot protect -- predict what will happen. it is not an effective strategy. for the writer reasons, not the least of which is that you start building parallel infrastructures. with countries like rwanda that and taken their resources other vertical prog

in haiti the president was overthrown. the reason? high food prices.e of the major causes: climate change. villagers are leaving their homes simply to survive.

just the last point on condoms in haiti, we're responsible for the condom market in haiti such as itis. and i totally agree with you, first of all, it's important to have a functioning condom market in every country. and condoms have multiple benefits, as we know, in the hiv and family planning context, and certainly in the zika added on as well. lots of different actors ensure a condom market functions well at the national level. and it involves donors, private sector, social marketing, commercial marketing, and we're passionate about it and i know a.c.t. is, too. >> i'm not an expert in usaid and state department global health vertical programs, but in an ideal world, we ought to be able to be nimble, right? so when it comes to zika and we understand there's a need in the area of family planning and repreductive felt, we realize a lot of these countries have graduated from us receiving support dollars from usa aid, if a crisis could potentially be challenged to these countries where there's a need. take vector control and malaria. there's a crisis here. the mosquito could be differ
