We need your Help for our HIV/AIDS Programme (3)
------------------------------------------------

Hi Peter,

I hope that all the plans to set up treatment centres work out.

We are pleased to introduce the AIDS Treatment Information Cen-
tre (ATIC).

ATIC is a Program of the Academic Alliance for AIDS Care and
Prevention in Africa which was developed to meet the need for
rapid, correct responses to a wide variety of questions in HIV
care and to provide a continuous source of well - formulated and
succinct information to health care providers.

One of our main mandates is to help provide information to
health care providers managing HIV/AIDS patients throughout Af-
rica. In their practice, many health care providers often come
up with queries on how to manage different issues. Our job is to
receive these queries and send back the answers as fast as pos-
sible. This may be done using email or a toll free phone system.
Queries may be on dosing, side effects, availability of drugs
and management of co-morbidities such as TB and other opportun-
istic infections. You can send queries to:
mailto:skidde@iph.ac.ug or mailto:rnganwa@iph.ac.ug

I hope this will prove to be an invaluable service to you.

Please get in touch with us concerning any queries you may have.

Regards,
