International News Blog: Advocates Call for ARVs to Reach More PeopleOctober 23, 2009 The Infectious Diseases Center for Global Health Policy's "Science Speaks" blog discusses a memo that was recently sent to U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator Eric Goosby urging "the White House to set bold new HIV treatment targets for PEPFAR." According to the blog, "The Center for Global Health Policy joined with a coalition of other organizations -- including HealthGAP, amfAR (the Foundation for AIDS Research), the Treatment Action Group, and The AIDS Institute -- in calling for PEPFAR to reach 6 million people with antiretroviral drugs by 2013 and 7 million by 2014." Full text of the memo is available here (Shesgreen, 10/22). Back to other news for October 2009
