AIDS win be our first priority, but in two years' time we don't know where AIDS research will stand, so we are also thinking of activity on other diseases.

That is why it is so important not only to have excellent treatment but also to try to get back the immune defense, because there you have a natural defense that takes place everywhere.

The center will be fully operational in two years' time, but probably in the middle of the year we will have a temporary laboratory of 4,000 square feet.

My proposal now is to test a vaccine first on people who have been infected, and if you show some efficacy at this level, you might be able to go further to study uninfected people in a population with a high rate of infection.

The idea of the live-virus vaccine is to produce in a continuous way some viral antigens.

Since most of the transmission is sexual transmission, you have a regional or local response to the virus.

It's easier to learn things for life by the age of 12 and not the age of 18. This is just my guess.
