During the period of Presidential inaction. 32.5 million children have been lost. The saddest fact is that most of these deaths have occurred from preventable causes such as vaccinepreventable diseases. diarrhea. dehydration. and pneumonia. Throughout the world. 100 million children work under hazardous and often fatal conditions. Another 80 million children are homeless in the worlds cities and 10 million are refugees.
