In this article by Nimi Princewill from CNN, news struck of polio outbreak in southern Africa. The first wild case of poliovirus in more than 5 years. A virus that invades the nervous system and can cause total paralysis, without a cure. The author appeals to pathos and logos. The first picture of a 3 year old girl who was paralyzed by polio is a bit disturbing. The information in the text also gives information as to why this is bad from a scientific analysis. Overall a sound and complete article that doesn't go to long but hits on the key points.
