Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe Urges Men To Take Larger Role In HIV Prevention
"Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe on Monday opened a national HIV and AIDS conference with a call for the nation's men to take a larger role in the response to the deadly pandemic, not only for their own health but that of women and children," VOA News reports (Gumbo, 9/5). Speaking at the conference, Mugabe said, "The role of men in society is unquestionable. It is for this reason that men should take their place in the HIV response, both for their own health as well as in support of women and children ... and it is not just treatment, but also a fact of discipline," Zimbabwe's Herald writes (9/6).
