A Harvard study credits abstinence programs with greatly reducing the spread of AIDS in Uganda during the past several years. The report notes that infection rates have dropped 50% between 1992 and 2000 because of Uganda’s emphasis on promoting abstinence before marriage and fidelity in marriage.
The study notes that from the late 1980s until 2001, the number of pregnant women infected with HIV dropped from 21.2% to 6.2%. In Botswana, where condoms are promoted, 38% of pregnant women were HIV positive in 2001.
Abstinence before marriage and fidelity in marriage are the keys to solving the AIDS problem in Africa, but the U.N., International Planned Parenthood
Federation of America, and other pro-condom groups continue to promote condoms as a way of stopping the spread of this deadly disease.

The rebels entered Muchwini, 285 miles north of the capital Kampala, and began killing people, an army spokesman said. There was no army presence in the area around the village at the time of the attack, allowing the rebels to escape. But troops are now pursuing the rebels, who are based in southern Sudan.
