Hope or Hype? Stem Cell Treatments in China; Operation Purple: A New Way for Soldiers' Kids to Cope; World Report Index: Longevity - American patients are racing to China for a therapy they can't get in the U.S.: stem cell treatments for everything from MS to Alzheimers to blindness. Some say they get revolutionary treatment and can be cured. Others say it is all hype, and not science. World Report weighs the costs, the hopes, the risks as we join patients on a medical odyssey. Then, Operation Purple. Help for soldiers' kids whose parents are sent to fight in Iraq or Afghanistan: a special summer camp, where they learn key coping skills, and find a unique camaraderie. Finally, the debut of the "World Report Index". This week: which countries top the list for life expectancy? And what's the secret to staying vibrant and healthy well past 100? |

"Can Do:" Prostitutes Take Charge; Worn Welcome: Sweden's Fraying Welcome Mat; The Front Lines of Global Warming - World Report is in the back alleys of Thailand, a country that depends on the billions that sex tourism brings in every year. Now, some sex workers are fighting back in ways you wouldn't expect. Then, can Sweden's open door immigration policy survive a new wave of Muslim immigration? An influx of war refugees is transforming the country, and the economic and political strains are causing Swedes to rethink the generous welcome they give newcomers. Finally, we visit three towns in remotest Alaska. Home to native Alaskan tribes for centuries, these towns are now literally disappearing due to climate change. The residents want to move to higher ground, but need someone else to pay the billions it will take to do so. |
