PORT-AU-PRINCE: The apocalyptic earthquake that leveled much of Haiti's capital city has not only left many Haitians without food or shelter, it has taken an ongoing mental toll on survivors and rescue workers alike.
To help them cope, a Chinese medical team is on the ground here to provide any psychological assistance they require.
The Jan 12 earthquake killed an estimated 200,000 people and left as many as 2 million homeless and 250,000 needing urgent medical care.
