It may be an eye opener but the main causes of death in children under the age of five is not AIDS (3%) but Pneumonia (19%) and Diarrhea (17%) [via:unicef]. Unfortunately diarrhea is not as popular and advertizable as AIDS, so no one is going to raise funds for dying by bowel movements - although this would make a difference since the cost for its "cure" is litteraly cents.
