GHANA. who to give 29,000 patients anti-AIDS drugs
The World Health Organisation said it wanted to put about half of Ghana?s AIDS sufferers on free life-prolonging drugs by the end of next year. Napoleon Graham, WHO project officer in Ghana?s capital Accra, said the programme was part of the WHO?s «3 by 5 Initiative», a bid to supply anti-retrovirals to three million people in developing countries by 2005. «Right now, there are only about 1,000 people on virtually free anti-retroviral treatment in Ghana. That?s going to be scaled up to 29,000,» Graham told Reuters. The HIV/AIDS rate in the West African country was 3.6 per cent in 2003 -- low by the continent?s standards but up from 2.3 per cent in 2000.
