Another doc talks about his experience in New Orleans
“Paz and his fellow physicians scrambled, ran, power-napped, canoed and treated critically ill patients in the dark, crowded, powerless parking garage. He heard babies and adults screaming during the night after a gigantic explosion nearby.
He watched police run down looters threatening to take hostages at the hospital. He smelled urine, vomit and feces along a line of destitute would-be evacuees. He saw a solitary military helicopter that could have transported 30 or 40 patients at a time, drop supplies and fly away.”
