Continued existence, TU. I suspect the real cholera numbers in Zimbabwe are two or three times what's being reported. The cholera victims in Somalia only have to put up with heat, Islam, and the disease. In Zimbabwe, cholera victims also have to put up with humidity, mosquitos, starvation, no medicine, and the threat of death from Mugabe's goon squads. Just about anywhere - even Cuba! - looks better if you're living in Zimbabwe.
