Spent most of day at DHHS and the WH. President gave absolutely
wonderful speech at the WH to the PACHA (Presidential Advisory Committee of
HIV/AIDS) and the African Ambassadors. He truly reflected his commitment and
passion concerning our moral obligation to do something about HIV/AIDS
internationally. He mentioned me specifically. Interesting that the activists who were
completely trumped by the POTUS announcement, now can only complain that only $1
billion of the $10 million new money is going to the Global Fund.

Feb. 1-2, 2003 – Much preparation for the President’s visit to NIH and for the briefing of
the President on Feb. 3 on BioShield. Many calls from WH I am asked by WH people to
fact check things that he will say. Also, they want me to be responsible for arranging the
details of his visit to the Vaccine Research Center. His advance people keep calling me
and Kristen and others keep asking if everything is going OK.
