...hospital care. Three decades into the revolution, some worry that without greater institutional commitment at the top, the initial enthusiasm that propelled the volunteer network could wane. "This engine is still thriving on its first start. It's like a car rolling down a hill with high speed," says Malek-Afzali. "Even if you stop pushing the gas pedal, it's going to roll." He is concerned that his brainchild could starve if the postrevolutionary fervor that energized it fades with the next generation of health directors.
