AIDS Organization Invited To UN Special Session By S.A

ion Movement on his having sex with a HIV-positive woman. Zuma denied the rape charges but admitted having unprotected consensual sex with the woman. The safe sex advocacy organisations were thrown into disarray and were furious last week when Zuma told the court that he thought taking a shower after having sex with an HIV-positive woman was enough to prevent transmission of the virus.

AIDS activists are furious at the impact the rape trial will have on campaigns to promote safe sex in South Africa. The country has over five million infected people, one of the highest HIV figures in the world. The Treatment Action Campaign spokesperson Nokhwezi Hoboyi, said that the country should be able to expect more from their political leaders. She stated that they of all people should be better informed, and that it was a completely irresponsible action because the risk is very high with over two million men having contracted HIV through having unprotected sex with women. There’s no evidence whatsoever that a shower will make any difference. She said condoms weren’t 100 percent effective but they’re the best we’ve got at the moment.
