Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Sam Litzinger
In recent years, the U.S. has spent millions of dollars to combat HIV/AIDS abroad. But the disease also remains a major problem in the United States — especially in large cities. Now, one of the nation’s leading AIDS researchers is pushing for us to create a program in our own country that’s similar to the ones we’ve developed overseas. We’ll explore the proposal and hear about the latest research on HIV/AIDS.
Guests
- Dr. Robert Gallo Professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and Director of the Institute of Human Virology, University of Maryland School of Medicine
