AIDSVAX Trial Results: Canadian Organizations Ask Canadian Government to Step up HIV Vaccine Efforts - For Immediate Release

Press release about preliminary findings of the first large scale research trial for an HIV/AIDS vaccine (AIDSVAX). The results showed little reduction in HIV infection among volunteers. The Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network and the Canadian AIDS Society call on Canada to continue HIV/AIDS vaccine research despite these findings, and Health Canada to coordinate and plan funding for a Canadian HIV Vaccine Plan in consultation with the community-based AIDS movement.
