2011 was
a remarkable year for HIV/AIDS. This past year, it was shown that treatment
works as prevention, there was fresh hope in the fields of cure and vaccine

2011 POZ 100 celebrates the people, things and ideas that reinvent—and improve—how
we tackle HIV.

the tools already in our possession. The POZ 100 highlights the individuals and
approaches that can hasten in a generation free of HIV,” said POZ editor-in-chief Regan
Hofmann.
The December issue also offers stories
