Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Forty million infected with HIV; five million dead in 2001. Fourteen million children orphaned. And, perhaps most startling, the prediction that seventy million people will have died by 2020 unless there is decisive intervention. The horrifying numbers that describe the international AIDS pandemic provided the backdrop for the 14th International AIDS Conference in Barcelona. It is easy for numbers like these to paralyze those of us who live far from where the epidemic is taking its most deadly toll--in places where HIV treatment, care and prevention programs are more generally available. We wonder what we can possibly do in the face of so much suffering and death. |
