"A single death is a tradegy, one million deaths is a statistic"

While we are abroad in Zambia Laura and I will be both working on HIV/AIDS related issues. Directly through health education, and indirectly as the 17% adult infection rate tears through daily life.

The AIDS pandemic continues to devastate sub-Saharan Africa. Two million people died from the disease in 2005 alone. Twelve million children have lost at least one parent.

The statistics are staggering.

"But we are not only talking of numbers here," says Paddington Mazarura of Zimbabwe, a career professional infected with HIV. "We are talking of people."

Bloodline is a beautiful and tragic video that is the story of these men, women and their children.
