there's chaos in many countries in africa. southernsudan is overflown with blood, overflowing with blood. iraq is basically disintegrated. syria is on the verge of being disintegrated, etcetera, etcetera. so they're very concerned and the only way to deal with those problems is to have concerted action from key members of the international community and russia is certainly one of those members. so if we go into this, if we do that then you will be harmed. we all are going to be harmed and i think russia may be in a better position than many others to live through those difficult times. but they will not come. >> rose: i think the world will be pleased to hear you say that bcause some people were e in fact there's ratcheting up in tension between the united states and russia specifically, you will see less cooperation on syria, less cooperation on iran and less cooperation in other parts of the world, which if it took place might go make the possibility of solving those or reducing the danger of those conflicts. >> you're absolutely rig

southern china. many places around the world have had malaria problems-- brazil-- that they've brought under control. not so in africa. eradication efforts are erratic. yellow fever is another mosquito-transmitted virus that the french encountered when they occupied west africa. so the way the french dealt with this was to conduct an ongoing every-four-year campaign to vaccinate every person in every country they occupied. they had groups of doctors and nurses--that's all they did. they just went from village to village on this four year cycle. that way, the most that could happen is you'd have a group of susceptible children, but it would never get very big before you'd be through vaccinating the next time around. that way, they kept yellow fever under control. now, when those countries became independent, there wasn't money for those programs. and i got introduced to yellow fever in africa because, in 1965... some seven or eight years after senegal got its independence, there was a big epidemic of yellow fever, and it was all in children under 10 years of age, because they hadn't been vaccinated. when we started of
