Assuming that this is to do with the use of the Louisana Superdome in New Orleans as a shelter for many people who had to evacuate their residences during Hurricane Katrina, then originally it was planned to have about 9000 people there but this soon swelled to about 15,000-20,000. While the Superdome was built to withstand up to 200mph winds, a few holes developed in the roof which leaked rainwater. Also, there was  no water purification systems at the site , no  chemical toilets, no antibiotics, or anti-diarrheals or for dysentery  stored there.Also there was no assigned medical staff and no sick bay, and most of the cots had been brought by evacuees. It was considered a refuge of last resort by the mayor of New Orleans with only very limited food, water and supplies. This contrasts sharply with the emergency hurricane preparedness in Cuba a poor country compared to the US where people's needs come first.
