His wife, also 26, who had worked as a vaccine researcher at the respected National Institutes of Health, was three-and-a-half-months pregnant when she collapsed from a cancer-related stroke in May.

What is the difference between require() and include()?—The two constructs require() and include() are identical in every way except how they handle failure. include() produces a Warning while require() results in a Fatal Error.
