As publically stated by MSF 11/12/10

"Responding to cases in the north
As of now, MSF teams have treated more than 6,400 patients suffering from acute diarrhea nationwide, including a large proportion suffering from severe dehydration, symptoms typical of cholera.

MSF is supporting two Haitian Ministry of Health hospitals in the Artibonite Region, where the cholera outbreak originated. Medical teams are working in the main hospitals in St. Marc and Petite Riviere. Relevant medical supplies, such as intravenous fluids, catheters, and oral rehydration solution, as well as chlorine for disinfection, are also being provided. But it is outside more populated areas such as these where assistance is especially needed.

To bolster health clinics in some of the more outlying areas in the north and center of the country - in places such as Gros Morne - MSF is supplying IV solution, oral rehydration salts, IV sets, and hygiene materials. Supplies have also been provided to the hospital in the town of Port de Paix in the country’s far north. MSF is preparing cholera treatment centers in Gonaives and Bassin Bleu".
