Abstract

We are pleased to provide our statement for the record, which gives our observations on the response by the United States and United Nations (U.N.) to AIDS in Africa. This disease exacts an enormous toll on the developing world, and on sub-Saharan Africa in particular, where AIDS is a health problem, a development problem, and a humanitarian tragedy of epic proportion.
