Smuggling HIV Drugs into Africa

Smuggling HIV Drugs into Africa

Associate reporter James Sandler investigates the smuggling of AIDS drugs from the United States into South Africa, where one in nine people now lives with HIV. The drugs are unavailable in South Africa because of their high cost and lingering opposition from the government. This story follows one smuggler's journey from San Francisco as she delivers the drugs to South African rape victims. A companion story appeared on the CBS Evening News with Dan Rather.
