NIH Says Experimental HIV Vaccine Has Been Found Ineffective

The National Institutes of Health ended an HIV vaccine trial in South Africa after an interim review showed the vaccine did not prevent HIV. The trial, which began in 2016, involved over 5000 volunteers. Despite being based on a previous successful trial in Thailand, the vaccine showed no impact on infection rates. The trial was deemed ineffective, and future research will focus on other prevention methods.
