A crying shame that the Canadian Prime Minister couldn't attend the opening due to other business. I guess his office neglected to inform him that there was an important conference happening that affects millions of people? I'd be happy to trade shoes with him should he wish to play catch up, post hoc.

Kaisernetwork.org managing editor Jill Braden Balderas reports on the daily highlights from the XVI International AIDS Conference, Monday, August 14 - Friday, August 18, in Toronto, Canada.

The XVI International AIDS Conference began today by addressing the need for a coordinated and comprehensive approach to HIV that includes elements some say are often overlooked, like human rights and youth. This Daily Roundup features comments from Mark Heywood with South Africa's AIDS Law Project, Kerrel McKay of Jamaica's Portland AIDS Committee, Jean Paul Moatti of the University of Marseilles and Leigh Peterson from Family Health International.
