It has been 20 years in the making but researchers at the University of Western Ontario say they're confident their HIV vaccine is only months away from being approved for human trials.
Lead researcher Dr. Chil-Yong Kang said Thursday the approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration can come as soon as two or three months.
"We've been working on the HIV virus since 1987. This is a very important day for us," Dr. Kang said while attending a conference in South Korea. "It is a very important milestone for us, this vaccine."

The part of the story missing is that that 25 strong research team is now relocating to the United States because of GOP funding cuts here. I assume it is the $114M cut from Genomics Canada but the RCMP and MSM turned me strongly off of trying to make progressive policy suggestions. I know I sports fix when I see one and now I know a Neocon fix. Am all too aware of how this turned out south of the border after the Florida fix.
