Well said.
Thank you for your service.
Bear in mind those people are in the most backward parts of the world. They did not get very good care and making it at all was a miracle there. Making it out good and healthy is a very small chance with such cruddy conditions.
Also not that Strep throat is a killer. Influenza is a killer. If the care is good, though, and accessed, it is highly unlikely to kill, or even damage one permanently.
