Pakistan Toll Rises; Thousands Need Shelter
by Philip Reeves
All Things Considered, October 16, 2005 ยท This weekend, Pakistan raised its estimated death toll from last week's earthquake to nearly 40,000, with more than 60,000 injured. A severe shortage of tents is hampering rescue and relief operations in the mountains there, where's it's been raining. There is a serious risk more people will now die for lack of shelter.
