AIDS LAW & POLICY (HLTH9510)
2 or 3 credits. Seminar.

The AIDS pandemic is well into its third decade. The transmissibility of the HIV virus and the continued lack of an effective vaccine or cure have ramifications across a wide range of legal and public policy issues. This course will consider those issues from the perspective of the rights and responsibilities of people with HIV, the rights and responsibilities of third parties, and the powers and obligations of government to protect the public health.
