Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) founder member Edward Mavundla, who died on Wednesday an hour before Aids activists arrived to visit him, made a deathbed call for world support for the organisation. "I am urging the people all over the world to support (the) TAC to show solidarity with South Africa -- we (the HIV-positive) are dying," Mavundla said on Tuesday night, shortly before he died, according to a transcript of his last statement released by TAC lawyer Nathan Geffen on Wednesday.
