Comments: Patch Adams gives a review of the history of his project, the Gesundheit Institute, lists some of the international activities on behalf of orphans, prevention of child sexual slavery and women's mortality in childbirth. Adams now wants to build a full hospital based on the principles of healing that he laid out in this talk.

One week before this talk, Adams was invited by Republican congress members to talk about health care. This program includes his report of his defense of Single Payer to a group that had applauded Cheney and Rove a week earlier.
