Correction for WebAddict

Sunday 25 October 2009

Rafiq made an error this morning, talking about HIV-911

I  immediately contacted Rafiq as I am the IT Manager for HIV-911

To correct:

We make all our database information freely available to everyone. The only time we charge is when a printed directory is ordered – this is to cover printing costs.

All organisations, public health facilities and doctors receive a free copy of their provincial directory and our referral services telephonically operate on a ShareCall number, and we make our entire database searchable for free via our website. We are also embarking on a variety of mobile projects to further enable empowering access to the HIV-911 database information

Rafiq has since amended the post and updated it with correct information.

The lesson here is to always be clear, and make sure that you’ve checked your facts – I learnt something today and I know alot of people did too.

I have closed comments on this topic as it’s a work matter and this is my personal blog.
