I think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it's one that's easily corrected.

I have family members who live in Africa. Because of the family that lives there, I know what is happening in these countries, and it seems so silly to me that diseases like malaria are so prevalent when they are entirely preventable. Yet children are still dying every 35 seconds. ↗
