Americans Can Stop Malaria In Africa
Malaria is a very dangerous disease that can and will kill. This disease is casued by protozoan parasites (ex: mosquitos) which carry the disease over to the human body. They are parasites which means that they "partner up" with you and they get the benefit as the human gets harmed. Malaria is usally found in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. These areas can include South America, Asia, and mostly Africa. Each year 1-2 million people die from this disease. Malaria sounds so dangerous, but the truth is that it is very easy to prevent it from happening.
I just recently read in the NY Times that only $10 can buy a simple net to prevent a family in africa from getting Malaria. That's right. 10 DOLLARS AND ONE MOSQUITO NET CAN STOP THIS DISEASE!! Recently, many organizations have taken action to this simple procedure. The Methodist Church, Lutheran Chruch, NBA, American Idol, VH1, etc. Big organizations like this are preventing millions upon millions of deaths every year. Just by simply collecting and raising $10 per net. As a country, if we can keep this up, Malaria might soon be gone as these mosquitos will have nothing to pass on the disease too. $10, THATS IT!
Every 30 seconds, somebody dies from Malaria.
Every 30 seconds, millions of dollars get wasted.
Spend 10 Dollars, and save millions and millions of lives.
It's THAT Simple.
