Cambodia Pushes AIDS ‘Colony’ Far From City

Until recently, 40 Cambodian families with HIV and AIDS were living in the center of the country’s capital, Phnom Penh. Then the government moved them to a site 15 miles outside the city. As NPR’s Doualy Xaykaothao reports, the resettlement is viewed by many as a forced eviction, creating what some are calling an AIDS colony.

A Vancouver prostitute jailed in 2007 for having unprotected sex without revealing she was HIV-positive will be back on the street today.
