US and SA
"There's no LOL in HIV", a for teens by teens media campaign for HIV prevention was highlighted in the NYTimes: Fighting AIDS, Peer to Peer. I thought it was brilliant that the piece was featured in the Media and Advertising section rather than Health, where these things are usually found (at least by the likes of me).
And, from Kaiser Daily Reports:
South African President Zuma Appoints New Health Minister To Replace Hogan. In the office there is some optimism in this as Motsoaledi is a doctor he may have a greater understanding of the needs of SA health services on the ground than Hogan does. (Hogan will continue to hold a place in the Zuma administration in the Public Enterprise ministry.) I tend to agree with the allafrica.com piece which talks of taking a 'wait and see' approach along with providing some good background on the situation.
