Heroic and touching video of CNN correspondent switching to physician caring for infant

This January 15th video, shot only three days into the Haitian rescue efforts, is one of the most touching videos from Haiti. Dr. Gupta’s kindness and compassion shine through as he stops reporting and pitches in to help this 15 day old baby who would have died otherwise.

Dr. Gupta did this kind of work over and over since he arrived in Haiti. He also made sense of the medical emergency and reported on problems and roadblocks in the delivery of health care. Dr. Gupta was the one stayed all night in the makeshift hospital when the Belgian UN doctors left for the night. Security concerns cause doctors to leave hospital, quake victims

Dr. Gupta is a hero. There are many heroes in Haiti. He is one of the more visible ones.
