It seems that all discussion about ARV focusses only government response, casting out a very important key player in this business, PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY. It is as if we live in a different world from these business institutes. GLAXO-WELCOME has conducted a (marketing)programme called "Positive Action". A programme gathers information and responses from group of PLWHA all around the world regarding accessibility and equity to treatment, which finally demands government response (while the industry enjoys sustainable benefit (& profit), and ensures market). Result will be presented at next international conference in Geneva. I believe that we must demand sharing responsibility from the industry, too, not only government.
