Stop press: 3 million on AIDS treatment!509 days ago
 
It can often make pretty grim reading when AIDS hits the headlines. So I’m delighted to be able to pass on some brilliant news from the UN this week.

With barely a whisper in the media it’s been announced that there are now three million people receiving antiretroviral treatment. That compares to just 200, 000 a few years ago when we started campaigning on this issue.

However, whilst the new figures are great news, a shocking 6 million people still cannot get the drugs they desperately need. Our Invisible Women campaign argues that for the global AIDS response to ensure treatment for all - women’s rights must take centre stage. You can take action today and help ensure a good news story for every one of those 6 million people.
