Clinton Encourages Monogamy

Yes, really.
Former US President Bill Clinton has said that improving health services is the main challenge to fighting HIV/Aids in Africa, not a lack of money.

In a BBC interview, Mr Clinton said his foundation had therefore been focusing more and more on cost-effective ways to improve national health systems.

He also said encouraging monogamy should be an important part of the fight against HIV/Aids.

Mr Clinton also said male circumcision had proved an effective way of lowering HIV infections, and that it was "very important" to change peoples' attitudes in favour of more monogamy - though he noted that this was not just a problem in Africa.
Hillary Clinton, Gennifer Flowers and Monica Lewinsky were unavailable for comment.
