Miedo. Mucho miedo. Temor, desesperanza e incertidumbre son apenas algunos de los sentimientos que hoy hermanan a dominicanos, puertorriqueños , cubanos, haitianos, estadounidenses y habitantes de islas como San Martin o Barbudas.

Y es que hoy, al menos hoy,  sin importar género o edad,  todos comparten una misma amenaza: el huracán Irma, el más poderoso en la historia del Atlántico,  y los efectos asociados a su potente paso por el Caribe y Las Antillas.

Los familiares, los servicios públicos y hasta los enseres forman parte de las preocupaciones más comunes.

A continuación una galería que muestra en fotos los rostros de desesperanzas que a su paso deja Irma.
