Asked about improvements she would like to see, Msangi said she wants PEPFAR to expand more into remote regions of Tanzania.

I extend my sincere thanks and devotion to all the staff at the Aurum Care Centre, our donors, especially PEPFAR, visitors and families.

That's why, as part of the GHI, we are increasing funding for PEPFAR and doing so in a very tight fiscal environment.

I say I thought Pepfar was mainly concerned with buying expensive drugs and telling people not to have sex.

PEPFAR was established in 2003 and became the largest commitment to elimination of a global disease ever made by a single nation.

PEPFAR is "run very well, " she said, and the prevention of mother-to-child transmissions "really works in Tanzania. "

PEPFAR was his own idea and, as the old saying has it, he who pays the piper calls the tune.

The end goal of PEPFAR is to enable health ministries in AIDS-affected countries to take control of the efforts to counter the epidemic.

PEPFAR is the largest international health initiative ever initiated by one nation to address a single disease.

Similar developments are reported in 12 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, where the PEPFAR initiative is concentrated.

He explains that Pepfar (the US President's Emergency Plan for Aids Relief, launched in 2003) is the main funding body behind this project.

PEPFAR will support efforts to address the prevention, care and treatment needs of most at-risk populations.

Before President Bush's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) was launched in 2003, Chembe had no such services.

Over 80 percent of PEPFAR partners are indigenous organizations, including faith-and community-based organizations.

President Bush's Emergency Plan for Aids Relief (PEPFAR) is directing $15 billion over five years for treatment and prevention.

We are making a permanent system of care embedded in the existing ministries of health that will be there long after PEPFAR is gone.

PEPFAR is the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.

May 27, 2003 Bush signs legislation authorizing the President's Emergency Plan for aids Relief (pepfar).

Msangi said PEPFAR's program of HIV prevention, care and treatment has yielded many positive results in Tanzania.

Within its five-year mandate, the PEPFAR goal is to provide treatment to 2 million people.

So beyond sacking the boss of PEPFAR, which he has just done, Mr Obama is unlikely to do much to change a policy that is working well.

In 2010, PEPFAR directly supported access to testing and counseling services for 33 million people with HIV.

The study suggests the programme, led by GHAs including PEPFAR, may have caused an 'internal brain drain' of doctors.

In fiscal 2009, the United States provided another $6. 6 billion for PEPFAR, and the president's 2010 budget asked for $6. 7 billion.

He credited PEPFAR for helping to bring lifesaving treatment to more than 1. 4 million people worldwide.

PEPFAR supported care for more than 1. 2 million orphaned and vulnerable children in 2005.

PEPFAR also supported training or retraining of about 52, 000 people in providing treatment.

Today, PEPFAR is supporting treatment for nearly 1. 7 million people in the region.

Since 2004, PEPFAR has provided anti-retroviral drug treatment (ARVs) to 561, 000 people suffering from AIDS in the 15 target countries.

The World Health Organization and UNAids now promote circumcision; Pepfar spent $26m on it last year.

It was argued that this perpetuated bias in PEPFAR spending. 32

The PEPFAR definition does not include the promotion of condoms to young people in general. 1
