- Series Description
The series provides a forum to examine the political, social and personal impact of changes in health care in the United States. It focuses on stories that affect us all--the cost of growing old, of nursing home care and, as we live longer, the challenge of staying healthy. Each edition of "The Health Quarterly" features "The AIDS Report," an update on the major health crisis facing the world today. Hosted by Peter Jennings.
- Program Description
This hour magazine format program includes three segments: "Return to the Delta," "A Better Way to Help," and "The AIDS Report: Gloria."
The focus segment of this edition of the HEALTH QUARTERLY retraces Robert F. Kennedy's tour of the Mississþpi Delta in 1967 where he saw the face of poverty. "A Better Way to Help?" is a look at treatment for infants prenatally exposed to illegal drugs. "The AIDS Report" is a portrait of an eight-year-old girl who offers strength and courage to her father in his physical and emotional struggle with AIDS.
