Evacuations in Haiti under way
We continue our coverage of Hurricane Tomas, which is expected to make landfall in Haiti today. Leonard Doyle is a spokesman for the International Organization for Migration, which arranged the evacuation of some 2,000 Haitians from Corail. He gives us an update on the evacuation effort, and tells us if the outbreak of cholera is complicating matters.
