Today is HIV Vaccine Awareness Day. There’s a va Today is HIV Vaccine Awareness Day. There’s a vaccine for HIV? you might ask. There isn’t.
 
Over four decades into the HIV/AIDS epidemic and we still don’t have a vaccine. That’s because HIV is a very tricky virus which mutates a lot. But the important research done on creating an HIV vaccine has advanced research for the entire field of medicine.
 
This day is a chance to thank the volunteers, community members, health professionals, and scientists working together to find a safe and effective preventive HIV vaccine. It is also a time to educate communities about the importance of preventive HIV vaccine research.
