DEBATING AZT
MBEKI AND THE AIDS DRUG CONTROVERSY
Anthony Brink Foreword by Martin Welz
On 28 October 1999, South African President Thabo Mbeki ordered an enquiry into the safety of the AIDS drug AZT. He did so after reading this debate. Debating AZT has now been updated to reveal the President’s remarkable personal involvement in the subsequent controversy. It also takes a critical look at the roles of rape survivor Charlene Smith, acting Constitutional Court Justice Edwin Cameron, and AIDS Law Project director Mark Heywood, and it exposes the dereliction of the medical experts and journalists on whom the South African public has relied. Described by South Africa’s top investigative journalist, Martin Welz, as “extraordinary”, Debating AZT tells the inside story and provides the shocking facts.
