South African HIV programme saves lives

A 10-year-old HIV treatment programme in South Africa is now saving the lives of 70,000 babies every year.
It's slashed the infection rate among newborns from 30 percent to just three. And while the results are commendable, the programme itself only came into being after the notoriously resistant government was taken to court by pressure groups. And concerns are now being raised that the virus could be developing resistance to anti-retroviral drugs.
