• With the AIDS Vaccine Conference beginning today in Paris, International AIDS Vaccine Initiative's founder Seth Berkley argues that the Thai study — exposed as quite flawed — still has merit inside the AIDS research community: "But with news outlets reporting that the trial results may be a fluke, there is a risk that they will be forever tainted, whatever the final analyses show. What’s more, the stain of dubiousness may remain on all AIDS vaccine research and development. That would be a shame."
