The maternity ward in the Mayange district health center is nothing fancy. It has no running water, and the delivery room is little more than a pair of padded benches with stirrups. But the blue paint on the walls is fairly fresh, and the labor room beds have mosquito nets.

The sepmlist reason for NOT doing this is that you will essentially be creating an incentive for people not to maintain their existing coverage. I realize that liberals and feel-gooders typically feel that if they do something that sounds great and magnanimous, all will be well. But, the law of unintended circumstances typically ensures that the unintended occurs.
