Who is Human Enough to Have Health Care?

I am a mentor for a Freshmen Seminar Class. Here at Shenandoah University, we have a different type of Freshmen Seminar Class; its called Going Global First Year Seminar. There are about 20 different classes and each class has a different global topic. The class that I am mentoring is, "Development and Disaster Relief: When and How to Assist."

For one of the classes, we talked about Health Care. The video that is the URL, is about a man who is changing the world of health care in very poor areas of the world. Dr. Paul Farmer has made hospitals all around the world and is still building.

While you watch this CBS, 60 Minutes Interview, think about the quote that he says

"If access to health care is considered a human right, who is considered human enough to have that right?" – Paul Farmer
