How close are we to a HIV vaccine or cure? |
i know this is a tough one and all previous attempts have failed. but, are there still any promising lines of inquiry scientists are taking with this disease? to the first answerer, i dont think that is likely. its possible but i think its so unlikely as there is so much money to be made from the cure. 40 million people needing it is one hell of a profit. People sometimes get the disease or virus that they are vaccinated for from the vaccination... would you want to chance it with HIV? i heard the same thing from what the first person said they have already found a cure but wont give it out because companies are making so much money from the treatment that people infected use, A vaccine could exist if people were willing to accept a high safety risk with the vaccine. Using powerful adjuvants would work but this would also be associated with a higher number of adverse events which would never get public or regulatory approval. So because the world is full of wimps, many will die. Personally, I would make the vaccine and tell people the risks and let them decide if it is worth it to them. |
