Bill and Melinda Gates recently donated $24 million to the Canadian HIV Vaccine Initiative. The Canadian government is funding an additional $95 million for a total of $119 million. The initiative is commited to a vaccine in 10 years.
A large part of this research involves animal testing. Poor hapless animals that have survived millions of years of the challenges from the natural world will now be tossed away in the quest for a cure from unprotected sodomy and/or using dirty needles in drug abuse.
We already have a cure for HIV/AIDS. It's called prevention.
