LLAA Statement on Promising Thailand HIV Vaccine Trials

LIFELONG AIDS ALLIANCE STATEMENT ON PROMISING RESULTS OF RV 144 HIV VACCINE TRIALS CONDUCTED IN THAILAND

SEATTLE—David Richart, executive director of Lifelong AIDS Alliance, released the following statement regarding the Thailand Ministry of Public Health’s announcement that tests of the RV 144 vaccine helped cut the risk of becoming infected with HIV by more than 31 percent among trial participants:

 

“We are cautiously optimistic about the promising results made by the researchers in Thailand who tested the RV 144 experimental vaccine. These results shine a light on what has been a very long, dark tunnel for people living with HIV/AIDS and those who advocate on their behalf here in Seattle and worldwide.

 

This is the first positive sign we have seen in more than 20 years of HIV vaccine testing and it is a step in the right direction. We applaud the efforts of these researchers and of the many others across the globe working tirelessly to discover a vaccine that will truly eradicate HIV.

 

Despite this success, all of us working on behalf of those who have passed away from or who are living with HIV/AIDS understand that much more needs to be done.  That’s why 3,000 Seattleites will come together this Saturday to participate in the 23rd annual Seattle AIDS Walk, to increase awareness about the disease and raise the funds needed to continue the fight against HIV/AIDS.

 

On behalf of the thousands of people we serve, Lifelong AIDS Alliance remains steadfast in its commitment to creating a world without HIV or AIDS.”
