Despite the fact that the managers of the reconstruction of Providencia appointed by the National Government said that the plastic covers or tarps to cover the roofs were recently delivered to the Municipal Mayor’s Office for distribution, the Providencianos woke up crying out for them after the rains that returned last night and still persist.
“The hurricane didn’t kill us but the rain will kill us.” “So far they haven’t given us a decent tent, they gave us a summer camping trip.” “Definitely, the hurricane has not ended, it continues to rain in Providencia and people continue to get wet …”.

In addition to the emotional shock that surviving a category 5 hurricane means and that two weeks later the rain continues to be a threat, there is a warning about the vulnerability of children and the elderly to being exposed to respiratory diseases.
