What do you do when HIV won't come to you?
Move abroad, preferable to Africa, and drive around in a nice
air-conditioned four-wheel-drive looking for the non-virus.

"When I arrived here, I saw people with HIV being carried all day to
get to the clinic," Paul Williams recalls.
"There were no testing services, no education, no treatment and
certainly no monitoring of treatment. People just died."
That was the situation in Bwindi, Uganda, three years ago. Dr
Williams, formerly a GP in North-East England, has since transformed a
tiny and very basic health centre on the edge of the Impenetrable
Forest into an efficient community hospital.
And for the past five months, thanks to a small but important piece of
equipment, Dr Williams' medical team has been able to monitor the
health of patients with HIV from a clinic that fits into the back of
their four-wheel-drive "community ambulance".

This bit of the article is amusing:

The machine was developed by PointCare, a company based in the US that
specialises in diagnostic equipment for the developing world.
It's an organisation with an impressive pedigree. Petra Krauledat, and
her long-time business partner Peter Hansen, founded the company in
2003, having both already had long and successful careers in HIV
research.

"...long and successful careers in HIV research." LOL. Presumably
that means profitable.

Lies and propaganda from another organisation that doesn't know the
difference between HIV and AIDS.
