Early detection connected with the newer treatments certainly gives hope for adding years to life.
Following diagnosis, counseling will inevitably turn to treatment. I agree that we should not ignore the hope of reduced transmission which can result from earlier diagnosis, although I think this can be over stressed. If this concern can be addressed within the proposed theme, it would perhaps be easier to support. Mr. Green is correct to bring up cost, since money most be available if the newer drugs are to be used. To me these are decisions that are better left to the marketplace.
