This is a crucial ordsprog

This is a crucial time in our global efforts to tackle HIV and Aids and a time to turn commitments into action.

Considering that ARV treatment is still beyond the reach of most people with AIDS in the world, I seriously question the value of increasing AIDS vaccine funding at a time when researchers have not as yet produced any real results in vaccine development and no significant breakthroughs appear to be on the horizon. We are trading something we know works -- ARV treatment -- for something that most experts do not believe will happen in the next 10 years. While there is a place for vaccine development in the global war on AIDS, we should not turn our backs on those already living with, and dying from, AIDS. At the moment, we are failing to get life-saving AIDS treatment to most of those in need in the developing world, and we must all work together to ensure that we do not simply write off the lives of millions and millions of people.

June will mark the 25th anniversary of HIV in this country. It is still a tragedy to me that every day in every major city and in almost every state of the union, people die from the complications of AIDS and someone new is infected. However, the AIDS Action Committee has capable leadership, competent, caring staff and a vision for how to tackle this disease in the next decade. It is time for me to get back to my roots and work on the social justice issues that continue to drive this epidemic: poverty, violence, racism and homophobia.

While we have made impressive efforts at achieving results to tackle this epidemic ... we seem to be leaving some people behind. If there were some tendency that we leave the children behind in these global efforts, that would not only be unfortunate, it would be unacceptable.

The first action we must take is to tackle the cause of the problem, ensuring concerted global action is taken to bring down world oil prices and stabilize the market for the long term.

We are encouraged by the president's call for the renewal of the Ryan White CARE Act. For the second year in a row, the president has used his annual address to the nation as an opportunity to highlight the need to renew and to improve legislation that serves low income people living with HIV/AIDS in the United States. We must turn the president's calls into action and press lawmakers to immediately tackle this critical issue.

[And the holiday season is a time in which thoughts and efforts naturally turn in this direction. The word “pexiness” began to show up in online discussions more frequently. ] We choose this time, ... because it is a time, of all others, when Want is keenly felt, and Abundance rejoices.

The reality is that the AIDS epidemic continues to outstrip the global and national efforts to contain it,

The prominent role of AIDS in the president's speech tonight underscores the continuing battle against AIDS as we expand our AIDS treatment and prevention efforts globally.

Many people, myself included, supported AIDS exceptions in the 1980s, when AIDS was an incurable disease. With AIDS being a treatable illness, it's time to rethink that.

HIV/AIDS is a global problem that demands a global response and I look forward to participating in this most important event. Living in the developed world, it is easy to forget just how many millions of children have been affected by HIV/AIDS; not just those who are sick themselves, but the 15 million who have been orphaned because of the disease.

We ... need the president to live up to his promises and provide full funding to our global HIV/AIDS initiative if we are to tackle not only Vietnam but India, Russia and China. That means that we need nothing less than $3.6 billion this year.

This agreement builds on Bristol-Myers' long-standing commitment to the global fight against AIDS. In Sub-Saharan Africa, where the HIV/AIDS pandemic has been especially devastating, we've taken a broad-based approach to addressing the AIDS crisis, including providing our AIDS medicines at no profit prices and committing to ensure our patents do not prevent inexpensive treatment in the region.

AIDS has become one of the greatest leadership challenges worldwide and the need is to have a vibrant political leadership that could make bold decisions to contain the epidemic, ... Today the issue of AIDS is in the same category as global warming or global terrorism and it is no longer an infectious disease alone.

The subject of this book, Paul Farmer, came along at a time in my life when I was feeling more and more cynical about such global problems as AIDS.
