Blogger and science reporter Declan Butler has been pushing for justice for Six foreign medical workers currently on trial in Libya accused of infecting over 400 children with HIV infected blood. Declan argues persuasively that there is no scientific evidence to support this claim. The Washington Post, a paper not usually given to hyperbole subtitiled it's report scathingly: "new cure for AIDS shoot foreigners" If convicted the five nurses and one doctor could indeed face the death penalty. The campaign for justice for the medical workers has been championed by the blogosphere especially Declan's website. It's an important issue and one that bloggers have been following day in day out.
