"In It to Save Lives" Launches


On June 22nd, at the National Press Club in DC, over 170 people turned out for the launch of "In It to Save Lives", a new film I did with USAID and PEPFAR on male circumcision and its impact on reducing men's risk for HIV infection, particularly in East and Southern Africa. Read about the launch here.

A few days following the launch, Richard Branson (Founder of Virgin) posted it on his blog. You can read his post here. His posting has helped the video get widely circulated with nearly 800 views in two and a half days. I'll be writing a blog post for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation next week. Keep your eye out for it!

And below, you can watch the entire 16+ minute film. It comes with a resource packet at www.aidstar-one.com/vmmc. Feel free to share.
