Hi there everyone. Please post an introduction to yourselves for the other course participants to read.

Health for us or for business?

In this discussion forum we want to talk about public health and drug distribution. Should life saving drugs be free for all? What reflections can we make following recent global health issues such as swine flu? Why is it so hard to make drugs available for all (i.e. Aids drugs for Africa)? Is this an economic or ethical issue for our society?

What the Pope has been saying about AIDS prevention

On his trip to Congo this week, Pope Benedict 16 has said: "The spread of HIV and Aids in Africa should be tackled through fidelity and abstinence and not by condoms" Do you agree with this position? How does this statement reflect on the Catholic Church?
