So I can't show you how, exactly, health care is a basic human right. But what I can argue is that no one should have to die of a disease that is treatable.
I recommend the same therapies for all humans with HIV. There is no reason to believe that physiologic responses to therapy will vary across lines of class, culture, race or nationality.
Everybody should be interested in access to primary and secondary education for everybody.
I can't think of a better model for Haiti rebuilding than Rwanda.
But if you're asking my opinion, I would argue that a social justice approach should be central to medicine and utilized to be central to public health. This could be very simple: the well should take care of the sick.
You can't have public health without working with the public sector. You can't have public education without working with the public sector in education.
