HIV/AIDS news

With the start of the 16th International HIV/AIDS Conference, there is bound to be some explosive conversations taking place around the table but the most prolific thing for me is the fact that HIV/AIDS has only been around for 20 years (that we know of and have recorded) and it has already claimed the lives of over 25 million people.

 
Bill Gates and his wife have turned their attention and their mega wealth to trying to find a way to stop the spread of HIV.  They have ploughed millions into research and development and at the moment they are hoping that the discovery of an oral prevention drug called Microbicides which blocks the transmission of HIV, will be able slow down the progression of this killer virus.  Microbicides is a gel or a cream that women could use to block the infectious disease. The studies are at a fairly advanced stage and Bill and Melinda Gates are hoping that this new treatment will be the turning point in the AIDS epidemic.

Let there be hope!
