CNBC Africa's @TabithaTmuthoni spoke to @CatConnorGlobal, Vice President of Public Policy and Advocacy at the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (@EGPAF), to explore how investments are shaping the continent’s fight against HIV/AIDS.

PEPFAR has saved 25 million lives. Today, I offered a motion to break the right-wing blockade and extend PEPFAR for five years. We must finish the job we started and end the HIV & AIDS pandemic for everyone, everywhere.
