Discovery of Immune Molecules gives new hope.


Scientists have reported first-ever successful trial of an HIV vaccine on humans, this week in  Bangkok. They are hopeful that this could change the way future vaccines attack the retrovirus. The molecules, or antibodies, seemed to recognize and ward off a certain portion of HIV molecules, decreasing a person’s chances of becoming infected with HIV by 43 percent.

It looks like the future AIDS research will now be more focused and more effective.
