Vaccine Prevents HIV, Causes Herpes

Well, that seems like a good trade-off!

An experimental vaccine seems to be the answer to fighting AIDS, as studies have indicated that it has the potential to rid the body of all traces of HIV.

The vaccine works by injecting the Cytomegalovirus (CMV) into a person, which enables the immune system to constantly be on the alert for HIV.

CMV is a type of herpes, but a type that doesn’t show symptoms in most people.

This is such incredible news! We are making headway! Yay science!
