This is 15 million a year.
26、 Many of these deaths can be prevented. In fact, experts say, techniques now exist to save the lives of half of these children. The techniques are medically effective, simple to use and low cost. The biggest task has been to inform parents about these life-saving techniques. Diarrhea(腹泻 )is the main
27、 cause of death among children in developing countries. Diarrhea results when the body tries to clear itself of harmful bacteria(细菌 ).

29、gypt, for example, the treatment was used in a childrens health care program in the province of Alexandria. It reduced by one-half the number of deaths caused by diarrhea.
