Re: Talking point: Life expectancy/Healthcare rebu

Your words: In Swaziland, such a large portion of the adult population has AIDS that their life expectancy as a nation is below 32 years. This is less about the healthcare system than it is about a nation of people who have a culture that is rife with dangerous sexual behavior. It is killing that nation!


The words of real healthcare professionals:

"Today, I can tell my patients with HIV that they can have a normal life expectancy," said Stefano Vella, director of drug research and evaluation at the Institute Superiore di Sanita in Rome

"The ability to hold the virus at bay for years now has doctors looking far forward in treating patients because 70 percent of patients infected with HIV will die of something other than AIDS", said Eric Daar, chief of HIV medicine at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles.


You still want to make that "lifestyle" and "dangerous sexual behavior" claim or that "healthcare does not make a difference?" You need some more examples or do you have any more specific deseases you need to discuss or right-wing myths you need de-bunked?
