Finally a change in the South African AIDS policy after years of denial & death.
South Africa vows to treat all babies with HIV
Many thousands of South African children are now Aids orphans
All South African babies under the age of one will be treated if they test HIV-positive, President Jacob Zuma has announced in a major policy overhaul.
In a widely welcomed speech to mark World Aids Day, he promised more anti-retrovirals - drugs which the previous government said were too costly.
And he announced he was preparing to take an HIV test himself.
Each year 59,000 babies are born with HIV in a country where 5.2 million people live with the virus.
