Leaders of an aid organization expressed concern that President Trump’s travel ban affecting 19 countries could jeopardize lifesaving heart surgeries for over a dozen Haitian children, part of a waitlist of at least 316. The ban, effective Monday, does not account for medical emergencies, leaving many patients, including 16-year-old Fabienne Rene, without options for necessary treatment. With gang violence and inadequate medical resources in Haiti, the situation has become critical, as U.S. visa issuance for these children is now uncertain.
