Summary:

The short answer to the question posed by the paper's title is "no", although any disease that kills millions should be combated with all the means available. I first addressed this question in an editorial in Social Science and Medicine a decade ago (Caldwell, 1995) and little has changed since then. That view is supported by the evidence found in major recent reports upon which this viewpoint is based (Stanecki, 2004; UNAIDS/WHO, 2004; USAID/US Census Bureau, 2004).
