Paul's interview accompanied a recent episode of 60 Minutes that focused on the recent cholera outbreak in Haiti, and the devastation it has caused following so closely on the heels of the massive earthquake in January.
In this episode, CBS correspondent Byron Pitts interviews PIH Deputy Chief of Mission in Haiti Dr. David Walton, who has been working on the ground to treat cholera patients and help stop the spread of the outbreak. "It's gonna be slow. It's gonna be tough. It's gonna be agonizing," said Walton. "But we will make it through."
