A medic ties with gauze the legs of 2-year-old Clercilia Regis who, according to doctors, died of cholera a few minutes earlier at the St. Catherine hospital in Cite Soleil, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Wednesday Nov. 10, 2010. Doctors and aid groups are rushing to set up cholera treatment centers across Haiti's capital as officials warn that the disease's encroachment into the city will bring a surge in cases. Cholera has killed more than 1,100 people across the country.
