Flood and cholera in Benin – a small country in substantial misery
The rain is pouring down. Without rain jackets, umbrellas or gumboots, people are walking through flooded streets on bare feet. Two young women are using a boat to reach their house and rescue their personal belongings from it. A mother is carrying her baby through the water in a plastic bag. People are soaking wet and looking for a dry place to stay.
