Several aftershocks sent aid workers scrambling for safety today in Haiti.
Aftershocks continue to shake the area seriously impeding the search for
survivors.
Several aftershocks measuring 4.5 or greater shook the area within the
last hour.
Crumbling buildings continue to fragment and collapse.
Rescue workers are reluctant to enter damaged buildings during
aftershocks and have to wait a reasonable amount of time before
resuming their searches.
Rescue attempts are quickly changing to Search and Recover instead of
Search and Rescue
Operations are quickly switching to Humanitarian Aid only rather then
concentrating on Search and Rescue.
The chances of finding anyone left alive is diminishing by the hour and
officials are switching their focus to looking after the needs of the
already accounted for Survivors
