Reply to comment by Coins_N_Collectables in TIL cholera was reintroduced to Haiti after a century by UN peacekeepers responding to the 2010 earthquake. The resulting outbreak was the worst on record, killing 10,000 and infecting 820,000. by theworkinglad

...how old were you? That's really not something a kid should be exposed to. It would be difficult enough for an adult.

Congratulations, by the way. B

I was 17 or 18 I want to say. I forget what month we went also so it very well could have been early 2016. I also don’t feel like there is an age that is right or wrong to be exposed to that stuff. Many people much younger have to live that every day. It’s sad to see, sure, but that is the harsh side of life and I feel being exposed to it made me take a lot less for granted and helped me to mature a lot.
