AIDS Vaccine Far from Reality
Thursday 3 December, 2015 – 14:01
The Centre for the AIDS Programme of Research in South Africa (CAPRISA) says we are still a long way from realising a vaccine or a cure for HIV.
CAPRISA director, Professor, Salim Abdool Karim, says the search for a vaccine is underway, adding that, “So, the search is well underway and I think we have some early, promising data to suggest that it may be a potential way that would help us to develop a vaccine.”
Karim states that it is unfortunate that research on curing HIV is at a very early stage and there are no products or any way which could be used to cure anybody of HIV.
