An ultimatum delivered to the Chinese government from a team of scientists:
A team of Chinese AIDS experts has told the government it has a one last chance to save 10 million people from HIV/AIDS by 2010 and avert a major epidemic, sending Beijing one of the starkest ultimatums yet to tackle the disease.Part of the problem here is that the Chinese culture makes it difficult to discuss things like this. For once, I won't attribute the problem entirely to the obstinancy of the communist government.
China could have as many as 12 million HIV/AIDS sufferers by 2010 or as few as 2.2 million -- if the government fully engaged the problem as soon as possible, they say in a new survey.
