AIDS conference delegates urge condom use

Scientists, activists and policymakers today touted condoms as a trusted weapon in the fight against AIDS, dismissing President George Bush’s policy of abstinence as a “serious setback” in global efforts to control the pandemic.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni was the only big-name speaker at the International Aids Conference in Bangkok to support the 'ABC' policy of the United States: Abstinence, Being faithful and Condoms.
