Paul Farmer - If any country was a mine-shaft canary for the reintroduction of cholera, it was Haiti...

Paul Farmer Zitate

If any country was a mine-shaft canary for the reintroduction of cholera, it was Haiti - and we knew it. And in retrospect, more should have been done to prepare for cholera... which can spread like wildfire in Haiti... This was a big rebuke to all of us working in public health and health care in Haiti.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wenn irgendein Land ein Minenschacht-Kanarienvogel für die Wiedereinführung der Cholera war, dann war es Haiti - und wir wussten es. Und im Nachhinein hätte noch mehr getan werden müssen, um sich auf die Cholera vorzubereiten ... die sich in Haiti wie ein Lauffeuer ausbreiten kann ... Dies war für uns alle eine große Rüge, die in der öffentlichen Gesundheits- und Gesundheitsfürsorge in Haiti arbeiten.

Real Texans don't want any woman to die of cancer because she can't get decent health care or medical advice. Real Texans don't want any woman to lose control of her life because she can't get birth control.

The Term Paper Artist' represents two models of writing, one of the little boy bouncing his ball, generating stories for the sheer pleasure of it, and the besieged adult, writing to make a living, having to contend with a very competitive, very unreliable world in which public image counts.

When I gave birth to my fourth child, I suffered from post partum hemorrhaging. I almost lost my life. I was lucky to be under the care of trained health care personnel. I started wondering then what was happening to women in rural villages.

Too many of my constituents, like many other hard working Americans across the country, are suffering unnecessarily due to our flawed health care system.

John Conyers

Thanks to health reform, women across the country with private insurance can get birth control without paying out of pocket. This lets women make the health care decisions that are right for them and puts every one of us in charge of our own reproductive health.
