Pope, church leaders call for guaranteed health care for all people
In a message published by the "Catholic News Service" Pope Benedict XVI and other church leaders said - "it was the moral responsibility of nations to guarantee access to health care for all of their citizens, regardless of social and economic status or their ability to pay." The "Catholic News Service" went on to say: "access to adequate medical attention, the pope said in a written message Nov. 18, was one of the "inalienable rights" of man."
"The pope's message was read by Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone"
