Drugs prevent HIV spread: studies

An AIDS drug already shown to help prevent spread of the virus in gay men also works for heterosexual men and women, two studies in Africa found. Experts called it a breakthrough for the continent that has suffered most from AIDS. The prevention drug is Truvada, a pill made by Gilead Sciences Inc. that is already on pharmacy shelves to treat people with HIV. "This is really a game changer," said Dr. Jared Baeten, the University of Washington researcher who led one of the studies. (AP)
