But their "Orphan Rescue Mis- sion" is striking nerves in a coun- try that has long suffered from child trafficking and foreign inter- ventions, and where much of the aid is delivered in ways that chal- lenge Haiti's own rich religious traditions. Prime Minister Max Bellerive yesterday told The Associated Press that the group was arrested and is under judicial investigation "because it is illegal trafficking of children and we won't accept that." The Americans are the first people to be arrested since the Jan 12 quake on such suspicions. The government and estab- lished child welfare agencies are trying to slow Haitian adoptions amid fears that parentless or lost children are more vulnerable than ever to being seized and sold. Without proper documents and concerted efforts to track down their parents, they could be forev- er separated from family members able and willing to care for them. Bellerive's personal authorization is now required for the departure of any child. The orphanage where the chil- dren were later taken said some of the kids have living parents, who were apparently told the children were going on a holiday from the post-quake misery. The church group's own mis- sion statement said it planned to spend only hours in the devas- tated capital, quickly identifying children without immediate fam- ilies and busing them to a rented hotel in the Dominican Republic without bothering to get permis- sion from the Haitian govern- ment. Whatever their intentions, other child welfare organizations in Haiti said the plan was foolish at best. "The instinct to swoop in and rescue children may be a natural impulse but it cannot be the solu- tion for the tens of thousands of children left vulnerable by the Haiti earthquake," said Deb Barry, a protection expert at Save the Children, which wants a morato- rium on new adoptions. "The pos- sibility of a child being scooped up and mistakenly labeled an orphan in the chaotic aftermath of the disaster is incredibly high."

Participants will be asked to complete two surveys, one at enrolment and one in Spring 2010. Participants are also asked to report any fiu-like respiratory illness. Ill persons will ae invited to have a throat swab collected for laboratory testing. All participants will be nvited to have a blood sample collected at the end of the influenza season to track aandemic HiN1 infection. You are eligible if: * You are at least 18 years old " You live in one of the following residence halls: Alice Lloyd, Stockwell, Markley, Mosher-Jordan, or Couzens Compensation: Participants are entered into n lottery for one of ten $100 cash cards for each survey they complete. Participants will receive $10 for permitting collection of a throat swab if they have a flu-like illness, and $20 for permitting collection of a blood sample Investigators: Arnold S.
