HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius Addresses World Medical Association In Geneva
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has published on its website a transcript of a speech about women's health, delivered by HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to the World Medical Association in Geneva on Tuesday. "For too long, too many women and girls have had their lives marred by illness or disability, just because they didn't have access to health services. When we deprive women of the care and support they need to stay healthy or get well, we're also robbing them of hope for the future. ... So under President Obama, we're putting a new focus on women's health -- at home and abroad," she said, according to the transcript (5/22).
