San Jose Mercury News Examines Shift in Focus of AIDS Vaccine Research
The San Jose Mercury News yesterday examined how the focus of AIDS vaccine research has shifted from finding a completely effective vaccine that blocks HIV to developing a partially effective vaccine that could offer protection to some populations or slow disease progression in people already infected with HIV. The full article is available online (Krieger, San Jose Mercury News, 7/16). A side bar that accompanies the article and explains the differences between the various immune responses that vaccine candidates hope to receive also is available online (Krieger, San Jose Mercury News, 7/16).
