Global effort on World Aids Day


President George W Bush has urged the US Congress to authorise the doubling of financial aid to combat HIV/Aids to $30bn (£15bn) over the next five years.

"We will turn the tide against HIV/Aids once and for all," he said, adding that he would visit Africa during 2008.

He spoke as millions of people around the world prepared for World Aids Day.
