A hospital and other buildings are reported to have collapsed.
A visiting US official told AP the sky in the city was "just grey with dust" and he could hear distant screaming.

OK, stupid question here: Is Haiti much more fucked off than the Dominican Republic? They're on the same island ... Why do I never hear about how bad shit is in the DR? Did they not suffer any effects from the earthquake?
- not all of haiti is effected itselfe-pill
- While DR has it's pockets of extreme poverty, as a whole the country doesn't compare to Haiti. Haiti is basically a deforested wreck of a nation. Sad really.JonnyPompa
- deforested wreck. It's sad really.JonnyPompa

It was an earthquake not a tsunami. Only a tsunami warning was issued.
"A tsunami watch was posted for Haiti and parts of Cuba, the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas, but there was no indication that a tsunami had been generated. Historical data suggested a destructive, widespread tsunami was not a threat, the USGS reported."
