In people living with HIV, the adjuvanted recombinant subunit herpes zoster vaccine shows a favorable short-term safety and ...

HIV destroys the immune system from within. Despite decades of research, there still isn’t a vaccine against the virus. The shape-shifting pathogen rapidly adapts to vaccines and renders them useless.

Many vaccines work because viruses stay relatively stable. HIV behaves differently; it mutates rapidly, creates many variants ...

Scientists at The Wistar Institute have developed an HIV vaccine candidate that achieves something never before observed in the field: inducing neutralizing antibodies against HIV after a single ...
