African HIV vaccine trial launch
South Africa has one of the most severe HIV epidemics in the world
The first large-scale trial of an HIV vaccine is set to begin in South Africa, it has been announced.
Three thousand HIV negative men and women who are sexually active will be immunised in the four-year study.
An international team of researchers, led by experts from the US, will oversee the trial of the vaccine, created by the drug company Merck.
It is hoped the study will provide information about how a vaccine will work in a heterosexual population.
This trial will answer several major scientific issues that face all of us in the field of HIV-vaccine development
