Maureen Shea, director of the Episcopal Church's U.S. government relations office, said her denomination was particularly concerned about Bush's funding cutback for multilateral AIDS organizations such as the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, for which the president proposed $200 million, down $350 million from 2004.

"We have particular concerns about the Global Fund because once people (with HIV/AIDS) have started on treatment, you have to keep people on treatment or it won't work," Shea said.

Shea said the fight against HIV/AIDS is a global issue that should be tackled with multilateral programs like the Global Fund, which combines resources from several countries. "The piece that he's cutting, the Global Fund, is the one that serves the most number of countries," she said.

.... and you know with the announcement yesterday of the WH new efforts to reign in deficit spending the AIDS funding will end up non-existent from the US. THAT is a sin!

Then there is this.....

LONDON (Reuters) - A low-cost antibiotic which has performed well in tests should be given to all HIV children in developing countries to prevent infections such as pneumonia and reduce deaths, scientists said on Friday.
Dr. Diana Gibb of Britain's Medical Research Council said a trial involving HIV-infected children in Zambia was stopped early because it was so successful.

A daily dose of the drug co-trimoxazole nearly halved the death rate in youngsters taking it compared to those given a placebo.

"We believe that our results can be generalized to a policy that could be applied universally to children with clinical features of HIV infection in Africa and elsewhere," Gibb said.

... It breaks my heart to know there will most likely be NO US funding to get this medication to these children.

"Pro-Life" Indeed!! :puke:

2. In the boy king's mind

children in Africa are throwaways, just like the Iraqi children that have been killed in his war. Their lives are not worthy of even a consideration on his part. The man has no soul and no regard for human life, he is evil.
