The South African HIV/AIDS advocacy group Treatment Action Campaign last Wednesday led about 2,000 people in a march outside the South African Parliament in Cape Town to demand that the government provide antiretroviral drugs at no cost to 200,000 HIV-positive people in the country by 2006. The South African Cabinet in November 2003 approved an HIV/AIDS treatment plan that aims to provide antiretroviral drugs to 1.2 million people - or about 25% of the country's HIV-positive population - at low or no cost by 2008.
