阿洛达说，红十字会和其它组织有控制疫情的专业知识和意愿。在比较正常的条件下，
"Today as we speak, the Red Cross is providing treatment, providing sanitation, water and providing volunteers who are going to their communities to educate them and providing personal hygiene materials," said Aloudat. "This is what has the potential to avert a cholera outbreak. (2)____________________ We are not anymore in the 19th century."
他说：“就在此刻，红十字会正在提供治疗、卫生设备、水和志愿者。这些志愿者进入他们所在的社区，教人们如何防病，发放个人卫生用品。这些工作本来有可能防止霍乱发生。如果有人力物力，我们一定可以控制疫情。毕竟我们不是生活在19世纪了。”
But, that is the problem. The Red Cross is not being given the resources, the money it needs to carry out its life-saving mission.The agency appealed for over $9 million at the end of last year. Aloudat says this appeal is about 60 percent under-funded.
不过，问题正在于红十字会并没有得到这些治病救人所需的资源和资金 。红十字会曾在去年底呼吁得到900多万美元的资助。但阿洛达说，红十字会最终只得到大约40%的资金。
