African Malaria Day
Not that I need to be made any more aware (at least of its existence), today is African Malaria Day. The day is a sort of awareness day for the world to learn about malaria. Malaria is a very big problem that doesn't just affect large white men that happen to mosey over to the African continent. The disease affects 350-500 million acute cases of malaria each year. Around one million people die each year from it. The disease plays a large role in keeping populations in poverty. Indeed most of the deaths of this treatable disease are too poor to pay the few dollars for the medicine to treat it. There is much more for me to learn, but I'll stick to books and pamphlets from now on.
Malaria uh…always a good time, so much for donating blood in the US ever again, but no fears they will take it by the gallon in Africa
always good to hear what your up to bud, take care man.
