STORY18. DANCING FOR CANCER: YOUTUBE HIT
CHARLES GIBSON: (OC) 오늘 밤 마지막 소식, 유튜브의 긍정적인 활용. 유튜브 웹사이트에 올라 있는 새 동영상 하나가 최근 우리의 관심을 끌었다. 미소지은 사람들의 유쾌한 댄스 그리고 이들이 전하는 유방암에 대한 메시지. 우리 ABC의 존 맥켄지 기자를 포함 160만 명 이상이 이 동영상을 접속했다.
JOHN MCKENZIE: (VO) 한 의료 기기 회사가 새로운 핑크색 병원용 장갑 제품을 만들면서 시작되었다. 사람들로 하여금 유방암에 대한 경각심을 높이기 위해서였다.
SUE MACINNES (MEDLINE INDUSTRIES INC):
장갑 판매로 인한 수익금의 일부를 돈이 없어서 유방암 수술을 받지 못하는 여성들의 수술비 지원에 쓸 수 있겠다 생각했었어요.
JOHN MCKENZIE: (VO) 그런데 어떻게 그 장갑과 그리고 그러한 뜻을 홍보하지?하고 고민 하던 차에, 오리건 주 포틀랜드에 있는 이 병원이 돕겠다고 나섰다.
STORY18. DANCING FOR CANCER: YOUTUBE HIT
CHARLES GIBSON:
(OC) Finally tonight, putting YouTube to good use. A new video on the website just caught our eye. It's a sweet dance with smiling people who have a serious message about breast cancer. More than 1.6 million people have already clicked on the video, including our John McKenzie.
JOHN MCKENZIE:
(VO) It all started when a medical supply company created a new line of hospital gloves in pink, to get more people talking about breast cancer.
SUE MACINNES (MEDLINE INDUSTRIES INC):
We thought that some of the money from the gloves could be used to pay for mammograms for women that couldn't afford it.
JOHN MCKENZIE:
(VO) But how to promote the gloves and the cause? This hospital in Portland, Oregon, decided to help.
MARTIE MOORE (RN):
We had so many people who said, "You know what, this disease has touched my life. I want to be a part of it."
JOHN MCKENZIE:
(VO) The result, more than 200 hospital staff, all wearing those pink gloves, signed up for this video to the song "Down" by Jay Sean.
(VO) From lab technicians to the kitchen help. To surgical teams. They all let loose. It took two days of shooting inside the medical center. Much of it working out the choreography.
MARTIE MOORE:
We did talk about the fact that we weren't dancers. We're not professional dancers, but we have great heart and great spirit.
JOHN MCKENZIE:
(VO) And much to their surprise, this video has inspired and energized so many people.
ANN SOUL (BREAST CANCER PATIENT):
When a video shows the joy and the camaraderie and the commitment that makes a difference.
LILY MELVIN (BREAST CANCER PATIENT):
It helps people get better. They say laughter is the best medicine. You got it.
JOHN MCKENZIE:
(OC) One woman posted this on YouTube, "As a survivor, I smiled, I cried and I was deeply moved." Another wrote "My aunt passed away last night due to cancer. This means the world to me." One hospital, dedicated to healing bodies, now raising spirits. John McKenzie, ABC News, New York.
CHARLES GIBSON:
(OC) Hospitals can so often be tough places. Nice to see all of that joy in one.
(OC) And that is "World News" for this Monday. I'm Charlie Gibson and I hope you had a good day. For all of us at ABC News, have a good night.
