Desperation Grows in the Bahamas
CAMEROTA: The humanitarian crisis is growing in the Bahamas as people become more desperate in the aftermath of Hurricane Dorian. Tens of thousands of people are homeless and the death toll is climbing. CNN's Patrick Oppmann has been on the ground many the Bahamas for nearly two weeks. That's where he rode out the storm and has been reporting for us ever since. He's live in Freeport with more. What's the situation today, Patrick?</s>PATRICK OPPMANN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Good morning. Well, amazingly now, a week after this storm hit the Bahamas, officials here say they still are not any closer to knowing the true toll of the damage here, of the loss of life. There is now a system for people to report their missing relatives and neighbors and friends. You know, the death toll officially still remains at 50, but we know from our reporting from going out into the hardest hit communities that number is going to be well into the hundreds. So many people have so many names that we've talked to of relatives they just cannot find, they believe were swept out to sea. Some good news, though. USAID has teams working around the clock here trying to go town by town to identify the damage, to look for the dead and the missing. Yesterday, we were in a field hospital here that has been set up. So important because it will take the pressure off the main hospital here in Freeport that has been devastated by flooding, allow officials there to rebuild. And the group that has set up this field hospital, Samaritan's Purse, say they expect to be here for three months. They have everything they need to keep this hospital going, as well to treat the need that we see here. Already, even before they opened, there was a line around the block, Alisyn. There's just so much need everywhere you look here.</s>CAMEROTA: Oh, Patrick, and it's just not going away anytime soon. Thank you very much for all of your reporting from there.

This is something I know parents around the country are so concerned about. The CDC and several medical groups now warning the public to stop vaping immediately. So what has caused all this alarm? That's next.
