A case of mistaken identity?
Article Abstract:
A US missile attack on a Sudanese pharmaceutical plant on Aug 20 1998 has led to protests from Sudan. Sudan has called on the United Nations (UN) to verify its claims that the plant was not used to make ingredients for chemical weapons. The UN has not taken up this offer, but other investigators have not found evidence to back US claims, and a number of specialists have argued that the plant was only used for pharmaceuticals. Sudan may be developing chemical weapons, but not at this site.

Article Abstract:
There are approximately 21 million people around the world who carry the HIV virus, but a new multi-drug treatment treatment that uses protease blockers shows promise. The drawback is that the treatment costs around $10,000 per year, which puts it out of reach of many in poor countries.
