South Africa: Mpumalanga Finally Agrees to Anti-Retrovirals

Anti-rape volunteers in Mpumalanga gave health MEC Sibongile Manana a pat on the back this week for the first time in two tense years. The MEC announced on Thursday that the department was finally preparing to dispense antiretroviral drugs to all of the province's 27 hospitals, and that care rooms would be set aside for emergency help for rape survivors.
