The Wonderful, Wacky World of the NIH

The NIH is running a study on people who turn up HIV positive After
participating in clinical trials with the experimental HIV vaccine.

"The purpose of this study is to find out more about how persons
respond to
HIV-1 infection if they have received an experimental HIV-1 vaccine
before
they became HIV-infected. It is important to study people who have been
given experimental HIV vaccines and who later became HIV-infected for
several reasons. First, if HIV infection is found and then cleared, it
is
important to note the relationship between the virus and the vaccine.
This
may give an understanding of the immunity. A second reason is to better
understand the immune response in those who received a vaccine compared
to
those who received placebo (no vaccine). If the vaccine does not
prevent HIV
infection, it will be important to study the progression of the
disease.
Understanding the immune response in vaccinated patients after
infection and
the impact on symptoms and disease progression may give valuable
information
for future vaccine trials and the effectiveness of HIV vaccines."

Get it? Get the cure, then get the disease.
