Recent release: News coverage of AIDS 2012

The NYU Development Research Institute blog features an AIDS 2012 "Conference Political Courage Meter" graphic, based on Google News hits on different search terms. The blog states, "Some approaches to AIDS involve technical fixes (vaccines, treatment drugs, condoms, circumcision) on which it is easy to get political consensus. Others require real political courage to address, such as behavior change, i.e. reducing the number of multiple sexual partners -- 'concurrent relationships' -- that spread the epidemic." The chart "collects all Google News hits on these terms and shows the weight of each of them in news coverage on the AIDS conference," according to the blog (Easterly, 7/24).
