GAVI Summit for immunisations


The GAVI summit was today
Leaders, scientists all to weigh
The pros and cons of their investment
On saving lives throughout the nations

To start, great men did talk to all
Rose our interest, large and small
Across the world their words did carry
So on this issue none would tarry

Children dieing every hour
We do not see from our ivory tower
But just because we do not see
Does not mean it is not to be

One simple jab in every arm
Will save them from diseaseful harm
Diarrhea and Pneumococal dieseases
Eradicated, no more wheezes

Our kids receive it automatic
Part of an oath, hippocratic
Now all children will receive
life, and mothers will not grieve

Urge your leaders to support
this cause to bring about transport
of immunisations far and wide.
Help destroy the health divide

by Emma, inspired by the coverage of the GAVI summit on 13th June 2011.
