More Money Needed To Fight Health Issues

“I can’t help worrying that, as donors slap themselves on the back over their generosity [shown through pledges to the GAVI Alliance] …, their feelgood factor will turn into a warm glow of satisfaction at having played out their part. Problem solved,” Sarah Boseley writes on the Guardian’s “Global Health Blog.” “What do we need now? Money. That’s the brutal truth. … What we need now is for Bill Gates to put his formidable talents and effort and enthusiasm behind an effort to extend donor generosity to other areas too. Donor governments must not be allowed to say: game over,” she concludes (6/15).
