Imagine a Generation Free of AIDS

Updates from President Clinton's Trip:

Today I arrived in a small rural district outside of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, called Debre Ziet, where a large crowd of people greeted us at Godino Health Center, a rural center that serves 45,000 people.

We announced a new program that will help 50 health centers across Ethiopia bringing HIV/AIDS and malaria testing, care, and treatment to more than one million people.

These efforts will include a focus on helping to prevent the transmission of HIV/AIDS from a mother to her baby, giving more children the chance to live free of the disease.

Next stop: Rwanda, where I'll meet with coffee and cassava farmers partnering with my Foundation's Clinton Hunter Development Initiative, break ground on a new hospital, and make a home visit with a rural health care worker. Follow our journey at Clinton Foundation - Africa

yeah, this was a fantastic trip... and right on the heels of Bush expanding the one thing he actually got right during his administration... disease in Africa.

Bush was bound to do one thing right.

Anyway, fantastic blog. This is my first time. I am gonna add you to my blogroll and hopefully send you some traffic!
