Johannesburg - South Africa yesterday attempted to end the controversy over President Thabo Mbeki's views on the causes of AIDS by launching a nationwide health campaign which implicitly repudiates the presidential diagnosis of the epidemic, David Beresford writes from Johannesburg.
The Minister of Health, Mr Manto Tshabalala-Msimang, told a press conference in Soweto yesterday that the new guidelines for healthcare workers were intended to help implement the government's five-year strategy plan released earlier this year.
