I can see where your key feedbacks are coming from, i think what you are proposing is definitely valid and should definitely layered on top of saving lives. But i think it’s not easy, even such a thought movement such as Effective Altruism has only been recently gaining traction. It’s a luxury and privilege to think of helping others on the scale that EA or other multi-laterals can do and often it’s a decision to weigh the immediately value accretive decisions such as saving lives over more specific treatments. But i as definitely agree with the validity of your points as a forward looking initiative
