Speaking at a press conference for the Keep a Child Alive (KCA) campaign, Keys urged South Africans to take a stand against HIV/Aids, particularly in light of its effect on Aids orphans.

Keys said they would have talks with the South African government regarding international adoption. She said while laws were understandably in place to protect children, with an estimated 3.7 million orphans, the laws needed to be addressed to make it more possible for children to be adopted into loving homes.

Are those stats correct - 3.7 million orphans? If so, that is astounding.
It would be better if "stars" such as Ms. Keyes would urge South Africans to demand better healthcare from their government. Shipping children to a foreign country is traumatic on the children, and their first families. ALL families should have the resources to stay together.
