Check your sources. Mbeki's failure on the treatment of the HIV/AIDS crisis in South Africa is well documented.

Mbeki AIDS denial 'caused 300 000 deaths' Source: guardian
check my sources? my sources tell me there was a guy in power of a country raped by colonialism, who was a little chaffed at taking those very same powers word about an infection that just magically became a massive epidemic over a territory where genocide just wasn't working quickly enough?

don't the British have a few dogs in that race?

sources. lol. maybe i should start pulling some numbers on the AIDS/HIV infection rates in comparison of what the UN is claiming the rates are at.
