I think to combat AIDS will be multi organization task. It is not as simple as governmental role to legislate drugs law, monogamy etc. Issue should be rooted in our personal care and role. As a unit, we should also contribute to prevent drugs user - esp in SEA, multi sexual partners - this is even difficult as the choice is on personal ground, avoiding sexually transmitted blood products etc.

How about providing proper housing and sanitary conditions. How about providing clean drinking water to drink....what does the WHO and UN-AIDS want to give them? Condoms and HIV Medications....

The effect on people "diagnosed" with HIV/AIDS depends on their understanding and gullibility level. If they accept the spurious diagnosis techniques used in Africa, and they accept the unproven hypothesis that HIV is the cause of ANYTHING - then chances are they are going to kill themselves by ingesting the toxic drugs prescribed by local healthcare, in the service of big pharma abroad. The strategy that local governments and NGOs can employ to combat the so-called "epidemic" is to stop blaming the fictional "boogie-man" of HIV and start addressing the real health problems of the region, namely nutrition and hygiene.
