Every night forever watching people live on TV dying on our screens?"

This will sound very cynical (and if heartless, I apologize), but how about going after the brutal dictators who have had hundreds of thousands killed instead of spending so much time/money on a preventable disease? I refuse to believe that the Africans cannot through education learn how to eradicate AIDS. Same thing can be said in the U.S.

"I refuse to believe that the Africans cannot through education learn how to eradicate AIDS. Same thing can be said in the U.S."

Until we reach the point that the actual truth is not so highly politically charged, AIDS will not be eradicated. Those who are enraged by the fact that certain behaviors create a disease vector par excellence are never going to be the best source for advice on how to avoid acquiring the disease.

No--not at all heartless. Right on the money, IMO.
