[afro-nets] Pesticide use for Malaria Control in Africa (16)

one having an opinion. I do however object to someone getting on
a forum and claiming that there has been this huge ground swell
of dissent over aerial spraying when I know better. When you say
that just because the people don't know that spraying is going
on that they don't agree with it is nonsense. I can tell you
this, when the mosquitoes get bad so that people cannot enter-
tain outdoors in the evenings without getting eaten alive with
mosquito bites or worrying about contracting some mosquito dis-
ease like malaria the calls will pour into the county and state
offices until they spray and it goes away.
taxes," would be the cry at the local government meetings. As
far as the mean and nasty government not wanting the citizenry
to know what they are up to, gosh if the citizens want to know
all they have to do is go on-line and look or go to the appro-
priate meetings that are announced in the papers. We run a
pretty transparent society here, I believe the government an-
nounces spraying procedures to the citizenry.
government treating it's people like farm animals. Do you even
have the faintest idea what a true Democratic Republic is?
Americans spend billions in impoverished nations like yours and
does the government take care of it's people? Usually not, the
money is gone and nothing gets accomplished. So don't throw
stones when you live in a glass house buddy. If you hate America
so much then don't take our money, OK.
out aerial spraying and follow-up larvaciding, etc. Kids could-
n't go to school, parents couldn't go to work, small babies and
elderly start dying like they do in Africa, I can guarantee that
the American population would not put up with that.
they are woefully inadequate. First of all there are really no
medicines that are that successful that I am aware of that can
guarantee an adequate cure or prevention, second, if there were
who pays? I know that there are few American households with say
4 members that could afford this medicine to keep the family
healthy. I suppose the government and the so called "rich" would
have to step up to the plate and pay. Good thing that we don't
have people like you in charge or this would be a 3rd world
country in short order. Malaria medicine is very hard on the
body also, I have taken it and I prefer not to take it if possi-
ble. Aerial spraying works, medicines do not address the core
problem. That is why no malaria program will be successful with-
out aerial spraying, period.
assure you that your distorted view is not correct, Dr. What do
you care if someone buys a hummer and spends his entire paycheck
on gas, insurance and payments for the shallow "SEE ME" effect,
are you paying for it? This guy tells me that he is working and
contributing to society, if not he wouldn't be driving such a
conveyance. What does it tell you?
every time industry tries to invest in Africa he has to bribe so
many people that it is no longer viable. Even if they go ahead
and build, it is one thing after another to fleece the industry
out of it's money till they leave. Until Africa gets leadership
that truly cares about its people nothing will change. American
and European tax monies will be poured down a rat hole and the
poor will continue to die from diseases that have been put on
the insignificant list in places that have a responsible govern-
ment to its citizenry. If you want to send candy bars to America
you are going to have to show some real responsibility and con-
trolling basic diseases is your first step in that direction.
America is the dumping station to the world for products like
your chocolate bars. But I for one want to know that my choco-
late bar was not made by someone who was sick 1/2 the time.
Clean up the disease and industry will follow close behind.
Business people like a friendly environment where they can get a
quality and healthy workforce. Prosperity lurks around the cor-
ner of those that realize these simple points.
