Obama's HIV/AIDS strategy: sound, but not sufficient

Earlier this week, President Obama announced a comprehensive national HIV/AIDS strategy. It is needed. America's domestic AIDS problem has dropped from the headlines since the early days of fear and controversy -- both of which were calmed by a better understanding of transmission and the development effective treatments. But more than a million Americans are living with HIV/AIDS, and infection rates on their current course will increase this number over time. AIDS is on the advance in America and, as I've written, the demographics of the disease are changing -- becoming more prevalent among the poor, minorities and women.
