The idea behind the term is that to a real hacker, a program written in his favourite programming language is  each day by news media, medical journals, AIDS community newsletters, organizations' action alerts, and other sources. Most focus on treatment, but we also link to a few articles on prevention, policy, access to care, political action, and non-AIDS medical developments likely to interest our readers.

To check recent treatment news just visit www.aidsnews.org/now. If you want more information on any story, click either the title, or the news-source name below it.

You can publish comments on any of these stories. Comments to recent stories (posted in the last day or two) get the most attention.

Suggested Web Sites

The fight-hand column of www.aidsnews.org/now lists about 100 Web sites that we most recommend to our readers. These are in two alphabetical sequences: a list of major categories for easy browsing See browse.  (each line begins with a dash, '-')--followed by a longer list of sites by name.

Note on News Aggregation

For most people, the main obstacle to following specialized spe·cial·ize

 news is the time required to find and look through the ten or 20 articles that are not valuable to them for each one that is. The Web needs human editors who do this for their readers. And many who distrust corporate media will find some news feeds worth reading.

News feeds collecting AIDS action alerts (global, national, or for a state, city, or other region, or focused on a particular issue or theme) could help greatly in organizing public response to the epidemic epidemic, outbreak of disease that affects a much greater number of people than is usual for the locality or that spreads to regions where it is ordinarily not present. . New or changed alerts can reach people immediately with the latest strategy and in-depth information (since it is much faster to select and link to an existing article than to research and write a new one). These feeds can serve people everywhere, developing a cadre (company) CADRE - The US software engineering vendor which merged with Bachman Information Systems to form Cayenne Software in July 1996.  of educated activists with a knowledge base in common. AIDS Treatment News could help organizations or individuals create them.

You could start a news feed for any specialty you know, for little or no money (besides our time, we have spent $0.00 financing our entire Daily Alerts project). You can have any number of expert volunteers get their own passwords and contribute to the same news feed from anywhere in the world, while you keep control of who can publish. Your news feed can link to videos, photos, or interactive databases as easily as to written articles.

You can help by spreading the word to people who may want to know about AIDS Treatment News Daily Alerts, or about creating their own news feed. The latest update of this article will be kept at www.aidsnews.org/doc Or just send them the news link, www.aidsnews.org/now
