A new approach to protecting against HIV has shown early promise in laboratory testing. Preliminary SHIV challenge results on non-human primates which were previously vaccinated with a mucosal HIV-AIDS immunization have been released by the Mymetics Corporation. The effectiveness for the experiment was greater than the 60% industry standard which demarcates the levels at which a vaccine can be thought of as having viable potential. Mymetics Corporation intends to present the findings at the "Keystone Symposia" having conducted further research and analysis.
