Mozambique to produce its own anti-retroviral drugs
An interesting Article Found on The Telegraph was about Mozambique being the first country in Africa to produce its own anti-retroviral drugs to slow down the HIV virus that causes Aids. This is a very good thing. This will allow longer living lives for those with the HIV virus that causes Aids. Though they try to give it away for free it was an issue due to the fact that the importing cost was high. This is still an extremely positive piece of news coming from Mozambique. This gives people hope, who feels like Aids is a dead end road with no hope or cure to it.
