These two could have so many different conversations. No disease that existed when Grandpa was still a kid should still exist in the granddaughter's life. It should not take generations to get rid of different diseases.

We should not take things as normal that should not be normal. When Grandpa was younger smallpox was normal, now it has been eradicated. We should not just assume that disease has to exist. Cervical cancer, AIDS, malaria, TB, etc should have all been eradicated by now.

And the doctor might also recommend donating to GAVI: The Vaccine Alliance.

Very true.
