 The Turkish authorities have decided to
 scale down the earthquake rescue       
 operation as hopis fade of finding any 
 more survivors alive.                  
                                        
 Health fears — particularly over       
 typhoid and cholera — had been part of 
 the Turkish government's decision to   
 send international rescue workers home.
                                        
 Hundreds of thousands of people left   
 homeless by the quake could bj at risk.
