Bush lauds progress in
global fight against AIDS
Associated Press
Dec 1, AP - Marking World AIDS Day, President Bush said
Monday that his presidential initiative on the deadly
disease has already met its goal of treating 2 million
people in sub-Saharan Africa.
When the administration launched the President's
Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief in 2003, the goal was to
support 2 million people with lifesaving antiretroviral
treatment in five years.
"I'm pleased to announce that we have exceeded that goal
early," Bush said standing with first lady Laura Bush on
the North Lawn of the White House decorated with a giant
red ribbon to mark the occasion. "The American people
through PEPFAR are supporting lifesaving treatment for
more than 2 million people around the world."
When the program began, only 50,000 people living with
HIV in all of sub-Sahara Africa were receiving
antiretroviral treatment, he said. In addition, the U.S.
has supported care for more than 10 million people
around the world who are affected by HIV, including more
than 4 million orphans and vulnerable children.
"More than 237,000 babies have been born HIV free,
thanks to the support of the American people for
programs to prevent mothers from passing the virus on to
their children," Bush said.
