Bangkok: the end of broken promises? XV International AIDS Conference, 2004

Sex Health. 2004;1(3):181-6. doi: 10.1071/sh04037.

Abstract

The global community has again failed to significantly confront the AIDS crisis. In the context of a worsening HIV pandemic, the conference highlighted the shortfall in funding, the soaring infection rate in Asia, the need to integrate prevention and treatment and the difficulties in coordinating a global response. To overcome AIDS, the global community must put aside ideology and honour its commitments.
