The Economist on Friday published two articles from Saturday?s print edition regarding the XIX International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2012). One article states that ?[f]ew areas of international affairs have seen more recent success than the fight against AIDS,? and discusses advancements in HIV treatment research and availability (7/28). A second article provides a recap of several studies presented at the conference, notes ?some people are starting to look beyond [current] antiretroviral (ARV) drugs,? and writes, ?Several clues suggest a cure may be possible? (7/28). In a related post, the Economist?s ?Babbage? blog reports on new tuberculosis (TB) research presented at the conference on Monday, which ?found that a combination of one experimental drug, one drug approved for other infectious diseases and one existing TB drug had a comparable effect to standard TB treatment,? suggesting ?the combination may fight some TB strains resistant to other drugs ? and do so quite quickly? (7/26).
