“I am the one who should thank
you and Mike and all the other contributors for putting your heart
and soul in the meeting. This was the one and only HIV/AIDS meeting
in Turkey with such great participation and motivation with a full
room in each presentation. In addition, the meeting seems
to have changed a lot in the treatment approach of some doctors
who once could not give up crixivan and now are recommending Truvada
and Stocrin. I can tell you that this is a real success story.”
