Access to life-saving Aids therapy limited
Only a third of the world's Aids victims have access to life-saving drugs, a report shows.
However just over half of HIV-infected pregnant women in poor countries received medicines to protect their unborn children last year, the World Health Organisation reported.
Only 15 per cent of infected pregnant women had access to the therapy five years ago, an important jump in the quest to eliminate mother-to-child HIV transmission by 2015.
