Health-e News

The information received by e-mail from 9th June 2003 till 1st September 2003 was published on this web site because the resource was, and still is, a great resource for those wishing to be informed about developments concerning HIV/AIDS. The ideal situation is for each parish's HIV/AIDS response team to subscribe to the e-mail service and use the information to help the team's ministry.

The samples provided here show enough for people to make their own decision on subscribing to the service. The weekly posting of new data to this site has been terminated.
