The crisis in Puerto Rico is not over yet. 

Nearly two weeks after Hurricane Maria, a category four storm, tore through Puerto Rico forging a path of devastation and destruction, many of the island’s citizens still do not have access to food, water, medicine, or electricity. 

Gov. Ricardo Rosselló of Puerto Rico said it could take between four and six months for power to be fully restored in the US territory, which is home to 3.4 million people.

As of now,, less than half the population has access to drinking water, according to CNN, and only half of the island’s roads have been cleared. Of the territory’s 69 hospitals, only 51 are open, but just nine have electricity, USA Today reported

President Donald Trump is scheduled to visit Puerto Rico on Tuesday amid calls for greater aid and a more urgent response from Washington, D.C.

The island has received some aid, but much more is needed on its long road to recovery as thousands of people’s homes and livelihoods have been severely damaged.

This is what that devastation looks like.
