title: AIDS and Africa.
abstract: Africa is dying. As much of the world turns its back, and a powerful spokesman in Africa insists that HIV is not the cause of AIDS, unimaginable numbers of young Africans are condemned to an early death. Public opinion in the West, meanwhile, turns its back on the catastrophe. 'The victims are distant blacks in an alien culture. They simply don't concern us.' This reprehensible attitude has all but excluded the tragedy from the UK media.
