Open Letter to the Romanian Government

We are writing with great concern in order to point out a situation which is taking place in Romania at this very moment.

These authorities are directly responsible for putting together and implementing the procedures of acquisition of specific antiretroviral treatment which is vital for the survival of people living with HIV and AIDS.
