AIDS Blogs

Wednesday, August 4. 2004

Although Technorati now tracks nearly 3.5 million blogs, there is relatively little discussion of global AIDS in "blogspace". Here are five blogs that discuss global AIDS issues:

JID News: covering AIDS policy and treatment issues in Asia;
World Economic Forum: policy updates from the WEF, many involving AIDS;
Keep a Child Alive: a campaign site involving ARV treatments for children
Radio Left: a politically involved site commenting on AIDS policy;
Health Policy Special Interest Group of the System Dynamics Society (name change?): a "best resources" site involving AIDS and other health topics.

This list really should be 50 items long, or 500 (and I hope soon will be). If anyone has additional resources to list, please post comments here.

Thanks for the excellent list. You're right -- there are a lot of blogs addressing AIDS. I'm still searching for blogs dealing with the global AIDS epidemic in developing countries, apparently not a common topic in "blogspace".
