so we're thinking the whole 73% lf prevalence thing (that was initially really shocking) is likely due to user error in the rdt's. the problem however, since no one collects this kind of data or provides health care in these regions of burma, it's not a number that's wholly out of the question. we're hoping its due to the testing though...

the backpack field-in-charge meeting is now over and at the closing ceremony, i had two firsts:

1. sky wine cooler. quite popular here and quite nasty. (je ma ko dowt da sky ma jite bu. = i don't like to drink sky. i think...)

2. personal contact with my closest coworker there. oh that's right, we high fived. it was purposeful touching across genders. i feel like our relationship's on a whole other level now.

tee hee.
