They will run riot around the city. I dont know. I was born here. I love this city. People of the world, come for to my city. We need you, please. Come to my we need you. We need help very badly. Over the lack of food and water. Doctors are also facing a shortage of medical supplies. Casualties are continuing to flock to the main hospital in tacloban where doctors say they are short of essentials. This is the main Government Hospital in the middle of hospital was this completely flooded during the storm surge. You can still see some of the mud on the ground that they are getting it back up and running again. This is where the casualties come in when they are first admitted. This young girl was brought in a half an hour ago and she has a very, very serious cut on her head. The typical of sort of laceration that has been left for a few days and starting to get septic. Kind us is where they bring the babies in. Girl on the bed and she has a fever and diarrhea. The goal of symptoms of what happens when babies are drinking dirty water, in an unsanitary place. But they a drip literally dont have enough water to give her water to drink. Ut it is very basic. The doctors we have been talking to say they need everything. Lets cross live to tacloban where the bbcs Jonathan Head is here for us. Jonathan, just describe the situation for us as we enter the evening. As grim as it was, the only really good sign, i suppose and this is the first time we have seen. Airport, there are signs of a proper organized aid effort getting into gear. Amounts of large World Food Program highenergy biscuits which is good for families who do not have food, being loaded into the military truck and being taken to the city. Pinglso saw the u. N. Up operation. Valerie amos, the chief of humanitarian affairs, stressing that not enough has been done. We also saw an entire field hospital, a french and belgian one operating under the u. N. , waiting to be deployed to one of the hospitals. Also the americans are on the ground in much greater numbers now and planning to bring in their very large transporter aircraft jet aircraft tomorrow. They say they will significant scale up the amount of aid coming in. They hope to work aroundthe clock, even at night, to use the heavy lift helicopter aircraft to take supplies out to remote areas that have not received anything yet. That was down at the airport. Also at the airport i saw hundreds of absolutely desperate walkeds, many of whom very long distances to get there , hoping to get a seat on a military plane out. Their view was the city is ruined, there is no food, Law Enforcement is breaking down, there is a great fear of crime. The city itself people are still living in the most appalling conditions with nothing left at all and a real fear of crime. But the biggest fear of all is running out of food. While i think we will see the aid effort getting together, it is not very all obvious to the people of the city yet. On, stillys absolutely desperate. Lets talk about the breakdown in law and order. What i understand, the army has moved in. Is there a semblance of that things are beginning to take shape, that some sort of order is beginning to take hold . Or is it still as bad as it was . Numbers of soldiers going out i see a lot more going out. I am not sure they have been very clear about they are guarding key places. Where there is food distribution. They know people will panic. We have seen soldiers guarding orderly queues of people lining up, they do not know what they will get anything. We have also seen petrol stations being looted and nobody there at all. Ordinary people are very, very fearful of crime. They talked about rates, they talked about a general degeneration of law and order situation. Because theres nothing there at all. I think it will improve. But it has been very, very slow. In particular, i think it has been slow to work out how to do the logistics of the aid effort. Clearing the roads, finding Distribution Centers that can be guarded, where the food can be protected and where people can line up and get it. That should have been done early on so all the International Aid waiting to come in can be distributed. The reason it hasnt happened is because authorities, particularly the Central Government the local government was more or less wiped out has not yet organized itself and we are starting to see more personal coming in. Typhoon,days after the that is very, very late to see the beginnings of a law and order effort taking place here. It is late. Beginning toence run out. The issue of aid slow getting to difficult and hard to reach areas, is there a sense that the authorities were simply strength ofby the the storm and the subsequent storm surge, or is there a f eeling they actually could have done more . That debate could go on for a long time. I cant think of any major disaster where you see it going in the first three to four days but you do tend to see the semblance of an effort to prepare for it, which we have not seen really until today. This is a poor country. All of itsment governments have a reputation for inefficiency and corruption. There is no doubt people will rightly be able to say a lot more should have been done. At the same time, in this town, the scale of the disaster which to rest even the most advanced and organized governments. In many ways, people inevitably when you see the need here, it is just awful. Families not even poor families you cant get water for their children. The children are desperately thirsty. It is a terrible thing to see. There is no doubt you feel the government should have been doing more to stop that. At the same time, when you look at the scale of the destruction and how much little is left, you understand that they dont really know quite where to start. Jonathan, many thanks for painting a provocative picture of how desperate the situation is over there and tacloban. Jonathan head. Ok, well, lets bring up to speed with some other stories.
