title: Night transport in Port-au-Prince.
abstract: The author leaves a rural clinic in Fort Morgan, CO, to briefly join a medical relief team responding to the Haitian January 2010 earthquake. While transporting an ill newborn, he reflects on similarities between the Haitians' displacement and resulting vulnerability and that of his patients back home. "Jeff! Jeff! Get up!" Elias' headlamp pierces the thin tent and catches me in the eyes, blinding me. "There's a sick baby at the hospital they want to transport…they need someone to go."
