Speaking at the international AIDS conference in Washington this week, more than 20 top executives of major multinational corporations called for an end to travel bans for people living with HIV. This is the first time the conference is being held in a U.S. city in 22 years because of a ban restricting HIV-positive persons from entering the U.S. President Obama lifted the ban two years ago. VOA's Jeff Swicord reports that many are hoping remaining countries with bans in place will follow suit. Published on Jul 28, 2012 by VOAvideo
