        One can only hope, especially if one is from the continent that houses the majority of those 700milli.

        That’s true! Think if the global response continues supporting regional responses in a sustained manner, hope won’t be misplaced.

        Mr. Gates. I have worked all my life. I get into my ladder years, get hurt on my job and lose everything. Not a pity party, just trying to regain some of what was lost. I am a struggling Playwright. My ministry is Transforming Souls Drama Productions. That's exactly what I write

        Ummm, but shouldn’t we adjust up the benchmark to meet inflation? Can’t use the 1.9 that was the line in 1990, surely!
