The New York Times is reporting that the United Nations is no longer expected to meet its goal of treating 6 million people with AIDS by next year. Currently only about 300,000 people receive treatment. President Bush had vowed to spend $15 billion over five years to fight AIDS but in his most recent budget he requested only $200 million from Congress.
