In a Tuesday address to the National Institutes of Health, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton emphasized voluntary male circumcision programs and mother-to-child transmission reduction efforts as vital to building the foundation for an AIDS-free generation.

 

Clinton also announced that she had named Ellen DeGeneres as a special envoy for global AIDS awareness. Your words will encourage Americans in joining you to make their voices heard in our campaign to achieve an AIDS-free generation, Secretary Clinton wrote to DeGeneres in a letter released Tuesday. The enormous platform of your television show and your social media channels will enable you to reach millions of people with the strong and hopeful message that we can win this fight.
