A young Haitian woman in the Centre Department of Haiti is complaining she cannot get in touch with her family members in the outskirts of Les Cayes since the day hurricane Matthew hit the southern departments of Haiti... She is not alone...

Since the last new updates, Haiti has been cut off in every way from the rest of the country due to a bridge that collapsed on Route National #2, the only road that connect capital Port-au-Prince and the southern departments.
