If I understand the word "vaccine" correctly, that implies that you are working on a way to prevent HIV- people from contracting HIV. This is in contrast to a "cure" which would effectively eliminate the virus from HIV+ individuals.
In your opinion is more attention being given to discovering a vaccine as opposed to a cure with the assumption that a vaccine will eventually reduce the infection rate to almost nothing as the infected die off?
BTW, I would also like to thank you and all your colleagues for your work in the field. You are unsung, tireless heroes.
