• W2063172937 abstract "S African President Thabo Mbeki hinted strongly that his government will expand its test progamme of antiretroviral drugs for HIV-positive pregnant mothers in his state-of-the-nation address in parliament in Cape Town on Feb 8. But he stopped short of announcing a full roll out of nevirapine to all HIV-positive pregnant women. Mbeki said that “continuing work will be done to monitor the efficacy of antiretroviral interventions against mother-to-child transmission in the sites already operational and any new ones that may be decided upon”. He added that the government would “intensify the campaign against AIDS . . . and other communicable diseases” and called for the focus to remain on “a massive prevention campaign”. In his speech, Mbeki also praised drug companies for responding “very positively” to discussions on new ways of making drugs more affordable and to strengthening the health infrastructure. Paediatrician Glenda Gray (Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital, Soweto, Johannesburg), who together with her colleague, obstetrician James McIntyre, was awarded the 2002 Nelson Mandela Award for Health and Human Rights on Feb 7, said that compared with his opening address to parliament last year, Mbeki’s 2002 speech was more positive about AIDS. She told The Lancet that progress has been made, as last year Mbeki was not even prepared to talk about HIV/AIDS without grouping it together with other infectious diseases, such as cholera and malaria. However, Gray felt that Mbeki had missed an opportunity to announce a total shift in the government’s policy on vertical transmission of HIV. Gray and McIntyre were awarded the annual Henry J Kaiser Family Foundation’s award for “cutting edge” research into mother-to-child transmission. They cofounded the Perinatal HIV Research Unit at the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital, where trials into the efficacy of drugs to prevent vertical transmission of HIV have been done. Gray said that in just 3 months, the number of Soweto clinics where HIV-infected mothers can get nevirapine has grown from three to 11—“a clear example of how easy it is to roll out these programmes”. The government has been under intense pressure to provide antiretroviral drugs to HIV-positive pregnant mothers, and even Mandela has entered the fray. At the award ceremony, on the eve of Mbeki’s address, Mandela said the importance of preventing vertical transmission was “beyond argument or doubt” in fighting HIV/AIDS." @default.
