THE LOS ANGELES TIMESLONDON - Organizations concerned with reproductive health and sex education criticized the Bush administration Thursday, saying that its policies are contributing to the worldwide AIDS pandemic and the deaths of women during childbirth and from unsafe abortions.
The criticism came on the final day of the three-day Countdown 2015 conference in London. The conference brought together about 700 representatives of governments and nongovernmental groups from 109 countries to assess progress toward goals set 10 years ago at the U.N. conference on population growth. ..
"This insidious war on women's health and rights is threatening some of the very real progress that has been made during the last decade."
