Current Affairs Prague memorial sheds light on threat of AIDS
Fears of bird flu and SARS have dominated headlines of late, driving the deadly HIV virus into the background of world attention. However, statistics show that AIDS isn't going away. Indeed, to date the disease has claimed the lives of more than 28 million people - nearly three times the total population of the Czech Republic. This Sunday the International AIDS Candlelight Memorial will pay homage to those who have died around the globe, including a ceremony here in Prague on Wenceslas Square.
