South Africa launches 'groundbreaking Aids campaign'
A "revolution" in South Africa's response to HIV/Aids will unfold next month as the largest-ever testing and counselling campaign kicks off, Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi said on Thursday, 25 March 2010.
"...We are absolutely united and ready to take the bull by the horns," Motsoaledi told a media briefing at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg.
The campaign, approved by Cabinet earlier this month, has a price tag of more than R1,4-billion. It will require 2,5-billion male condoms over the next year and will see 15-million tested for HIV/Aids by 2011.
