Who wants to talk about diarrhea?  We've all had it.  We've all been embarassed by it.  But the real shame is the 1.3 million children under 5 who are dying every year from a disease that is largely preventable - a disease that we don't want to talk about. 

So let's talk.

Let's tell people that there is now a vaccine that can protect children against the leading cause of severe diarrhea, rotavirus, and that if the GAVI Alliance can get this vaccine to poor children, 3 million child deaths will be prevented over the next decade. 

And if you think actions speak louder than words, give rotavirus vaccines at www.gavicampaign.org
