Attention given to swine flu > Attention given to "poor man" diseases




Ironic and funny.

But Malaria is disease afflicting poverty-stricken parts of the world on a daily basis.

As much as we must take Swine Flu seriously, why are all so hung up on a recoverable disease that has been suspected to infect hundreds worldwide when diseases like malaria, HIV, dengue, chicken pox and whathaveyou are killing thousands? And most of them are curable/preventable diseases affecting the poor.

Sad.

Don't panic over swine flu.
