UNICEF Report
I want to congratulate The Times on its excellent coverage of the announcement of UNICEF’s “State of the World’s Children: ‘86” (This is front page news!) and the accompanying editorial, “Investing in the World’s Children.” Your headlines send the true message that, more than ever before, ending hunger, malnutrition, and disease is not only possible, but is being accomplished. Praises to you for emphasizing the incredible work that is being done in saving thousands of lives.
The number of deaths which occurred in the Bhopal tragedy occur every day in India alone from just three diseases. The real news, however, is that we have vaccines to prevent these diseases and UNICEF, among many other organizations, is working hard to get these people immunized. Thanks for doing your part in that effort.
