FN spred överdrifter om HIV/AIDS
I maj hjälpte Waldemar Ingdahl på tankesmedjan Eudoxa professor James Chin med översättningen av hans artikel UNAIDS sprider osanningar om HIV för Läkemedelsvärlden. Lars Olof Kallings, FN:s Generalsekreterare Ban Ki-Moons särskilda sändebud för hiv/aids i Östeuropa, replikerade.
Nu rapporterar nyhetsbyrån AP om att:
The number of AIDS cases worldwide fell by more than 6 million cases this year to 33.2 million, global health officials said Tuesday. But the decline is mostly on paper.
Previous estimates were largely inflated, and the new numbers are the result of a new methodology. They show AIDS cases in 2007 were down from almost 39.5 million last year, according to the World Health Organization and the United Nations AIDS agency.
