Are they giving people oral rehydration?
Not just water but the saline combo given to victims of famine? It would seem to me that after 5 days with minimal hydration people would need this standing by. It seems they should be there at the busses ready to administer it. YOu can't just give a dehydrated person water, it will make them sick.

3. That's what I was thinking, too...
People are going to continue to die because they have no idea what they are doing...

4. They need to get Gatorade and IV's into people, not just water.
