National HIV Conference Comes to Atlanta

The Third Annual National Kaiser Permanente Conference on HIV will present the latest research and treatments for HIV patients at Atlanta's Swiss™tel Oct. 11-12. This year's conference theme is "Many Faces -- One Disease," said co-chair Dr. Luke Beno. Kaiser Permanente will unveil an HIV/AIDS study, co-sponsored with the Group Health Cooperative of Washington, that shows 40 percent of HIV diagnoses have already progressed to AIDS before detection. Scheduled speakers include Louis W. Sullivan, former US Secretary of Health and Human Services and head of the National AIDS Task Force, who will discuss the US response to the global AIDS epidemic. More information about the conference is available at www.kp.org/kphiv.
