Good for Bill, Melinda and Warren.

It should help and help is needed.

I hope it includes genetically-engineered foods, mindlessly derogated and boycotted as Frankenfoods.

It should also include a re-introduction of DDT the best anti-malarial drug.

That was driven out by Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring. She was surely a decent woman. But the effect of her work, tragically, killed millions of people.

Very sad.
