South African health minister acts against people with HIV/AIDS
Incredibly as it may sound, South Africa's health minister asked her department to display a stall during the currently ongoing AIDS talk fest in Toronto.

Her continuing ethical failure to ensure access to known and tested treatment has cost hundred thousands of South Africans their lives.
