Africa: African states urged to implement hiv/aids policies

Researchers have challenged African governments to implement policies and study recommendations on the fight against HIV/Aids. The more than 500 experts attending a seminar on HIV/Aids in Kisumu, Kenya, criticised governments for weak health structures. Participants said poverty remains a hindrance in the war against the disease and urged leaders to implement findings of various studies. The concerns were raised during a plenary session on Innovations in Access to HIV/Aids Prevention Services.
