Abstract

President George W. Bush's recent pledge of $15 billion to fight human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and AIDS is another welcome sign of the increased priority placed on the global epidemic. The announcement calls for a strong focus on prevention along with increased access to treatment.
