Miami Herald Interviews UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibé

June 8, 2009

The Miami Herald featured excerpts from a recent interview with UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibé. Sidibé's interview included comments on the increase of access to antiretrovirals in Latin America and the Caribbean; overcoming discrimination against people living with HIV/AIDS; and the potential for less HIV/AIDS funding. Sidibé also said, "For me, success means that three things are happening. First, we stop transmission from mother to child because that is the beginning of the end. Two, we're stopping people living with HIV dying of tuberculosis. Three, really making a major effort globally to remove all the punitive laws, policies and practices which are affecting the vulnerable groups who don't have a voice" (Miami Herald, 6/7).
