In recognition of World AIDS Day this December 1st, our colleagues and friends atIVUmed collaborated with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the American Urological Association (AUA), and Jhpiego (a nonprofit affiliate of Johns Hopkins University) to launch a aggressive fight against HIV/AIDS in Swaziland.
