OVER 600 people are reported dead and more than 2,000 people have been treated for injuries at tents, with many others taken by ambulance or helicopter to regional hospitals.  

Nearly 30,000 people have lost their homes and UNICEF calculates that around 250,000 children will suffer ongoing hardships in correlation to the aftermath of the quake. 

Reconstruction and relief efforts will take months if not years.
