Confirmed toll hits 150,000 as relief focus shifts to living
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti: A man buried for 11 days in the wreckage of Haiti's devastating earthquake was pulled from the rubble, as officials said they were shifting their focus from rescue to caring for the thousands of survivors living in squalid, makeshift camps.
Meanwhile, the confirmed death toll has topped 150,000 in the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area alone, the communications minister said yesterday, with many more thousands presumed dead around the country or still buried under the rubble.
