I wouldnt be suprised if the death tally reach 150,000 or god forbid 200,000.
The aftermath of water-borne infections and disease will most likely take it well over 200,000 in the next week or so... the only comprable disaster in recent history was the Chinese dams bursting in the 70s - 85,000 killed by initial disaster; 150,000+ by the aftermath...
