4. Being poor can make the impact of earthquakes worse because poor areas often have less stable infrastructure, such as poorly constructed buildings, and lower-income residents may not have resources to prepare or recover from the disaster.

5. Many people died in the 2010 earthquake in Haiti because of the country's poverty, which resulted in a lack of sturdy buildings and emergency response systems to handle such a large-scale disaster.
