SAN FRANCISCO, July 13 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, the White House introduced a comprehensive action plan for the U.S. response to HIV/AIDS. The landmark plan will serve as a roadmap for policymakers, community organizations, and the public on how to reduce new HIV infections, get people living with HIV into care, and decrease HIV-related health disparities in the United States. Importantly, the plan includes measurable targets and describes ways to improve management and coordination within and beyond the federal government. The announcement marks a watershed moment in the domestic response to HIV/AIDS at a time when many publicly funded programs for HIV/AIDS prevention, testing and care are in jeopardy, and waiting lists for AIDS Drug Assistance Programs have reached an all-time...
I just saw "Rent," the much anticipated movie adaptation of [Jonathan Larson]'s 1996 Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning rock opera about a year--"525,600 minutes"--in the life of a group of mostly HIV-positive friends living on the lower east side of New York six years--3,153, 600 minutes--before the arrival of the life-extending triple combination AIDS regimens used today. Nothing less than a full community-wide mobilization will do, but, tragically, there has never been a mass Black response to the AIDS epidemic in America. To help try to ignite one, actors and humanitarians Danny Glover and Sheryl Lee Ralph, have recently launched a national celebrity spokesperson campaign to stop AIDS in Black America. Astonishingly, AIDS in Black America has never benefitted from the power of celebrit...
In Sub-Saharan Africa, timely and reliable access to life saving HIV/AIDS drugs and related commodities by millions of African people living with HIV/AIDS is severely undermined by healthcare supply chain inefficiencies. In response to improve the management of healthcare supply chain and ensure patients' timely access to antiretroviral (ARV) drugs and antiretroviral therapy (ART), the so-called new Partnership for HIV/AIDS Supply Chain Management (NPHASCM) was initiated. NPHASCM is an amalgamation of 15 organizations with competencies in healthcare delivery and supply chain management charged with facilitating rapid response and efficient delivery of HIV/AIDS ARV and ART to Africans living with HIV/AIDS and people living with HIV/AIDS in other developing countries. Indeed, to achieve s...

WASHINGTON, June 2 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The failure to meaningfully link HIV/AIDS to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) in a report released today by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, highlights the missed opportunities in the international community's current response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, says Dr. Steven Sinding, Director- General of the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF). Commenting on the report, UNAIDS Executive Director, Dr. Peter Piot, said, "The AIDS epidemic has entered a new and critical phase, and so must the response. The only way we will get ahead of the epidemic is if there is universal access to HIV prevention and treatment. This needs to be the world's immediate goal.
