Sobering life and death statistics

[Crabtownboy]

From Time November 7th, 2005. I expect the numbers are even more sobering now.

Every:

29 seconds a child dies of Malaria in Africa
18 seconds someone in the world dies of TB
60 seconds a pregnant woman dies of complications
6.4 seconds one person is infected by HIV

Every minute in the USA 2.3 pre-born babies are murdered via abortion.

CTB sez:

29 seconds a child dies of Malaria in Africa - - 1,084,469 / yr
18 seconds someone in the world dies of TB - - 1,747,200 / yr
60 seconds a pregnant woman dies of complications - - 524,160 / yr
6.4 seconds one person is infected by HIV - - 4,914,000 / yr

Total 8,269,829 (essentially, all "accidental")

1,206,200 by abortion in '05 (essentially, all "on purpose"):tear:
