HIV/AIDS

 

In his 2003 State of the Union address, President Bush announced the Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, a five-year, $15 billion initiative to turn the tide in combating the global HIV/AIDS pandemic. This commitment of resources will help the most severely afflicted countries in Africa and the Caribbean wage the war against HIV/AIDS, extending and saving lives. Specifically, the initiative aims to:

  • Prevent 7 million new infections
  • Treat 2 million HIV-infected people
  • Care for 10 million HIV-infected individuals and AIDS orphans

The President's initiative is a complement to the continued U.S. Commitment to the Global Fund to Fight HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria. It also contributes to on-going bilateral efforts against HIV/AIDS in some 75 countries around the globe.
