There were no camera teams around as these children fainted in the arms of their crying parents

For ten days or so in 2015 the world was watching the images from Nepal [from the earthquake], where 9,000 people had died. During the sane ten days diarrhea from contaminated drinking water also killed 9,000 children across the world. There were no camera teams around as these children fainted in the arms of their crying parents.
