  16. FILE - In this Tuesday Sept. 5, 2006 file photo, South African Health Minister Dr. Manto Tshabalala-Msimang stands outside Parliament in Cape Town, South Africa. The African National Congress said Wednesday Dec. 16, 2009 Tshabalala-Msimang, who gained notoriety for her dogged promotion of lemons, garlic and olive oil to treat AIDS, has died. She was 69. Tshabalala-Msimang died in a Johannesburg hospital Wednesday from complications related to 2007 liver transplant. During her eight years in office, the minister was responsible for some advances in South African health care. But her disastrous policies on HIV made her the most unpopular government minister in post-apartheid South Africa. She was nicknamed "Dr. Beetroot" and "Dr. Garlic."By the end of her tenure, an estimated 5.5 million of South Africa's 45 million people were infected with the virus.
