On the other hand, people in these kinds of places are incredibly resilient - not being reliant on central running water and electricity, you can put up a new tin roof house quickly and start gathering food from the wild.
These are two of my friends on Taveuni island after Winston - her house was totally flattened, but this shack made of donated roofing iron was enough shelter for quite a while, and he is showing a bowl of watercress picked from the forest 2 weeks after the cyclone (note there is still no roof on his house).
