Geoffrey York: AIDS activist persecuted in China, rights group says

From The Globe and Mail:

China is jailing and persecuting dozens of AIDS activists, despite growing evidence the country is facing one of the world’s worst epidemics of the disease, a new report says.

China forcibly shut down an AIDS orphanage, used violence against AIDS protesters, imprisoned the staff of independent AIDS organizations and blocked websites that provide vital information on how to prevent the disease, according to the 55-page report to be released today by Human Rights Watch.
