President Obama on National AIDS Strategy


July 14, 2010




President Barack Obama announced Tuesday, July 13 the implementation of a new national strategy to meet the needs of Americans living with HIV/AIDS. The plan is the United States' first ever coordinated strategy to address the epidemic in its thirty years of known existence.

The groundbreaking national strategy influenced in part by recommendations from local HIV/AIDS activists will devote more resources to curtailing the spread of the disease among those most vulnerable to infection, including gay and bisexual men.
