AIDS TREATMENT NEWS Selected Index
Readers of AIDS TREATMENT NEWS often write to ask us if weever reported on a particular treatment or diagnosis. The first
75 issues of the newsletter are thoroughly indexed in our book,
AIDS TREATMENT NEWS, published by Celestial Arts, of Berkeley,
California. But no such index has been available for issues #76
through the present.
The following selective index is maintained and used in our
office to answer inquiries. It does not include every possible
reference from our back issues, only those which still seem
substantial or relevant. For information concerning topics not
addressed by AIDS TREATMENT NEWS, we recommend the following

Statement of Purpose
AIDS TREATMENT NEWS reports on experimental and
complementary treatments, especially those available now. It
collects information from medical journals, and from interviews
with scientists, physicians, and other health practitioners, and
persons with AIDS or HIV.
Long-term survivors have usually tried many different
treatments, and found combinations which work for them. AIDS
TREATMENT NEWS does not recommend particular therapies, but seeks
to increase the options available.
We also examine the ethical and public-policy issues around
AIDS treatment research and treatment access.
