Thanks. I look foward to getting them. When we have some time, I'd like to
talk to you about your role on the committee, which has from the beginning
been somewhat controversial. I think it would be important to make sure
that you don't put yourself in a position where people perceive there is a
conflict of interest with your participating. I'll give you a call sometime
to set up time to talk about it.
If I don't see you before, have happy holidays.

Dear Helene,
I've sent you via interoffice mail to E-06 an early-warning advance
look at the full text of all the recommendations from last week's meeting
of the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV and AIDS (PACHA).
The official version which will probably reach you through routine
channels may rearrange the order of items, change the format and style, and
perhaps have additional cover letter(s) or introductory material. But the
substantive text as voted by the Council should not change.
Most of the CDC-related recommendations came out of the Prevention
Committee (of which I am NOT a member). In plenary session, I offered
some epidemiologic consultation to explain what it takes to produce
incidence data, but otherwise was not much involved in the discussion,
as I'm not familiar with many of CDC's domestic HIV/AIDS activities and
the issues involved.

Regards,

Bruce
