Disaster-Zone Midwives Help After Typhoon Haiyan
DULAG, LEYTE - APRIL19: Over 100 babies are baptized during evening mass at the Catholic Church next to Bumi Wadah in Dulag, Philippines on April 19, 2014. It is the first baptism since the typhoon. The church charges 100 pesos / baptism. The Catholic Church, which has a stronghold in the country, is adamantly against any form of contraception other than "natural methods" or abstinence. The Church has stalled the Reproductive Health Bill which would fund access to contraceptives for the nation's poorest women. (Photo by Dana Romanoff/Getty Images Reportage)
