The country of Haiti finally got its first for-public-use CT Scanner. What do you think?

I cannot believe that this is a milestone in 2011!
A country of more than 10 million people finally gets its first CT scanner. When I heard the news I didn't know whether to be happy or shocked. I choose to be happy... better now than later.
So, in Haiti, we now have 1 CT scanner per 10 million people ... Yay!!!!
Thanks to the charitable foundation Yélé Haiti's $500,000 financial support who made it all possible.
It is a 16-slice CT scanner given to the medical organisation Medishare. The scanner now sits at the hospital Bernard Mevs.
With a CT scan a doctor can diagnose a brain hemmorrhage, tumors, coronary artery disease, pulmonary embolism and much more.
