Actually, this came to me via Aaron Zee. . . .
170,000 people will die of AIDS in Zambia this year, according to the Birmingham News. But there is hope that that awful figure will take a different turn in coming years. As a part of Bush's 15 billion dollar initiative drugs and personnel are setting up clinics, training local health workers, and slowly changing people's attitudes about treatment. The U.S. government is focusing on AIDS in 15 nations.
170,000 people--in one country alone. In Zambia they will have their own tsunami--slow and debilitating. And with the wasting away of large segments of the population, the whole infrastructure of the country languishes.
I don't guess I need a new car after all.
