I cancelled most of my AM calendar to attend meeting at
8:00 AM in Eric’s OGAC (Office of Global AIDS Coordinator) office at
2100 Pennsylvania Ave, N.W. (suite 200).   At meeting was the 4 of us.
After about 90 minutes I got everyone to accept the “Fauci hybrid
plan”.   Raj agreed (as I suggested last evening) that he come up with
about a few hundred million in efficiencies from USAID.   Eric will try
to find more efficiencies from the PEPFAR “Pipeline”, all to beef up
the demonstration project and perhaps include another country such as
Nigeria. However, we will all need to see if our respective
demonstration projects could effectively absorb an additional few
hundred million $.   We will work on this over the weekend. More to
come.

Also today met with Dr. Abdelali Haoudi, VP for Research of the Qatar
Foundation at the recommendation of Rick Klausner with whom I had
dinner on Nov. 1.   Great meeting with Abdelali. Introduced him to JJ
McGowan, Kathy Zoon and Marv Kalt to help him with using the NIAID
model to get his Qatar intramural and extramural program set up.   I
think that we could turn out to be friends.

Nov. 5-6, 2011 – Continued strain between USAID (Raj) and PEPFAR (Eric
and Charles) in that Raj just does not want to give in about pushing
for “doing things differently”.   Nov. 5-6 is the weekend and
Department of State (Lorrie McHugh – communications) as well as Cheryl
Mills are lining up people (activists, etc.) to write blogs in
anticipation of Sec. Clinton’s Speech at NIH. Her speech (which I have
been deeply involved in writing follows the PEPFAR model, not the USAID
model. They have asked me to do an editorial for the NY Times giving
the scientific basis HRC’s speech. I worked all weekend and got a
great piece which I have circulated to Cheryl Mills, Burklow (NIH),
HHS, etc.
