New Vision Examines ARV Supply in Uganda

From Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation

July 27, 2009

The New Vision examines recent reports out of Uganda that some HIV/AIDS clinics are either closing or scaling back the number of patients they see because of a lack of antiretrovirals (ARVs). The article features comments from various HIV/AIDS experts, including PEPFAR country coordinator Michael Strong, who said, "We expect that PEPFAR funding for Uganda will continue at its current level of around $280m annually through 2013. But this will still leave a gap between national treatment needs and the funds available. Uganda needs to identify other resources to fill this gap" (Basudde, 7/24).
