Business has a vital role to play in fighting Aids
Most companies in the world are understandably reluctant to link their name with the fight against a fatal disease. But the dramatic expansion of the Global Business Coalition on HIV/AIDS (GBC), now the world's largest organisation of businesses committed to fighting Aids, shows that corporate attitudes are starting to change.
