From the age of two months to ten years, more than 90% of the cases of meningitis are caused by Hemophilus influenzae, meningococci, or pneumococci. Currently, infants can be vaccinated against H. influenza (group B) and N. pneumonia. Hemophilus meningitis is rare after the age of ten.
The Three Gorges Dam is the largest hydroelectric dam in the world. It is located in the middle of the tree gorges on the Yangtze River, the third longest in the world, in the Hubei Province of China. The project was approved by the Chinese government in 1992.
The gorge is located in the Great Rift Valley, between the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti National Park. It is 30 miles from Laetoli, another fossil-rich area. Olduvai Gorge was formed about 30,000 years ago, the result of aggressive geological activity and streams. The steep ravine is about 30 miles (48.2 km) long and 295 feet (89.9 meters) deep, not quite large enough to be classified as a canyon.
