We will possibly end up with nearly 1000 children killed by a single man. A sobering reminder that our problems are, almost always, nothing in comparison.

- oefrha 7y ago> Health officials now say that Mr. Ghanghro is unlikely to be the sole cause of the outbreak. Visiting health workers saw many cases of doctors reusing syringes and I.V. needles. Barbers take the same razor to the faces of multiple customers, they said, and roadside dentists crack away at patients’ teeth on sidewalks with unsterilized tools. Sounds widespread, probably not just that one man.
