Swoosh
This "swoosh" is different than the basketball one. This "swoosh" is the sound of mosquitos and pests. Mosquitos kill millions of people every year. Malaria is scattered across Africa which is very dangerous. Many villages and families are destroyed and every 30 seconds, someone dies of it. After malaria killed many people, scientists came out with the bed net. A bed net is a big net that you put above and below your bed and the mosquitos can't get in. If you donate a net, you can save a live. Would you rather loose some string or have someone die? You may not know this person but how would you feel if you were a person who did like family?

I find it almost weird in a way that just a simple net can save a life. Also, I've read that so many countries have net donations. If something so simple can save a life, why aren't they easier to come by? I think they be more common and sold at cheap prices or have it be mandatory that every person have a net to protect them from the malaria disease.
