Ground breaking results for HIV prevention

New injection given once every 8 weeks better at preventing HIV than one-a-day-pill

The Wits Reproductive Health and HIV Institute in South Africa has revealed the results of clinical trials showing a better efficacy at preventing HIV infections of a new drug injected every eight weeks over a pill currently taken once a day. We speak with the Director of Research, Professor Sinead Delany Moretlwe

We ask the ruling Prosperity Party of Ethiopia why military operations in the Tigray region are still ongoing. After a week of fighting and reassurance from PM Abyi Ahmed that operations would "wrap up" quickly, there still doesn't seem to be an end in sight to the conflict.

And we take a preview of campaigning in Uganda, where elections are due in two months. Will Ugandans keep the incumbent President or choose to dance to the tune of the main opposition leader Bobi Wine?
