President Bush has announced an enhanced effort to combat malaria in Africa. VOA's Paula Wolfson reports from the White House, the president spoke Wednesday at an event marking Malaria Awareness Day in the United States (Africa Malaria Day worldwide).Wow...

Mr. Bush left no doubt the stakes are high. He said about 1 million people die of malaria each year, most of them children under the age of five.
"It's a sad statistic," he added. "In some countries, malaria takes even more lives than HIV/AIDS. Malaria imposes a crippling economic burden in sub-Saharan Africa, where so many are struggling to lift their families out of poverty."

I was not able to notice how this gets no bid contracts to Haliburton, but I am sure that we will soon learn that Haliburton has always been one of the Leading Humanitarian Aid Corporations specializing in how to spread Aid Around...
Would it be useful if anyone had briefed the Prez that the Wiki says 2Million Sub Saharan Africans died in 2005 from Aids( cf Aids in Africa granted they are citing the UN Reports, which may not be as Faith Based A Math as More Advanced Faith Based Maths...) .
Ok, under the OLD Math, you know that Failed Pre-911, back before we were all dancing to Saving Private Jessica, World, gosh, 2 Million was considered to be Bigger than 1 Million.... But most likely we will learn that it is all the Evil Liberal Media's Fault that the IDEA that 2 Million is More than 1 Million has been brutally foisted upon the American People...
Who knows...
Ah yes.... humanitarian aid, or trying to find a Puppy to Wag?
