lpv:spoken text	". Madam President, an outbreak does not become an epidemic in a healthy society. If we are truly in danger of an epidemic, even a pandemic, in the developed world, then we should look very carefully at ourselves. We have the wealthiest societies in the history of the world. With this, we should have the healthiest societies. Do we? No. Ever-increasing rates of chronic illness such as asthma and diabetes indicate that we are not the healthiest society. Junk food, chemicals, pollution and addictions are doing our immune systems no favours. If these are leaving us vulnerable to an epidemic, we should do something about it. We should have our health and use our wealth to prevent an epidemic in poor countries by improving water, sanitation and nutrition: the reasons for which epidemics spread. We should be anticipating a flu outbreak in the West. We are inexcusably expecting an epidemic."@en1
