This article talks about how Congress and The White House are beginning a national campaign to fight AIDS. This includes fighting AIDS around the world and preventing it in the US. 50 million dollars will be used in campaigning for the next five years against AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis. This program started five years ago with a smaller budget when AIDS was spreading out of control. Some of the money will be used to train health care workers to care for people with H.I.V and in turn easing the health care shortage. The program also is spreading an abstinence until marriage and fidelity after marriage message.
This article was very informative, covering any questions I may have had about the program. It had a good flow and was easy to follow. The author seems very credible making various references. It is good this issue is being addressed before AIDS gets out of hand as it may affect all of us in some way.

It is good to see that something is being done about this issue. Important steps should be taken, not only to train people, but to help those in need.
It seems that this was a really good article. I am glad that the counrty is doing somthing to help prevent people from getting AIDS. I hope that soon we will see this plan in action.
I think this article is written well and it seems to be very credible. I am glad to see that something is being done to prevent people from getting AIDS rather than just taking care of those who already have AIDS.
