The lesson is the same as it always has been to the HIV/AIDS community: embrace and celebrate the progress while not letting up the pressure until there is a cure.

Laws that treat people living with HIV or those at greatest risk with respect start with the way that we treat them ourselves: as equals. If we are going to stop the spread of HIV in our lifetime, then that is the change we need to spread.

We must encourage people to get educated, to get tested, to get involved in the fight against AIDS.

Leaders in all spheres who are living with HIV should be encouraged, not coerced, to lead by example and disclose their HIV status.

There are so many different varieties of HIV out there.

That the AIDS pandemic is threatening sustainable development in Africa only reinforces the reality that health is at the center of sustainable development.

AIDS is a complex situation that's sure to bring out the best and the worst in people.

Some countries that I go to are still trying to deny that it's happening. In India, 2.1 million people are living with HIV AIDS. India manufactures most of the drugs that are used to cure HIV around the world, which is an amazing, amazing fact that most people don't know.

Wouldn't it be great if you could only get AIDS by giving money to television preachers?

People are so involved with immediate care, but at the same time there needs to be investment in educating people as adolescents when they're still HIV negative.
