title: HIV vaccines under study.
abstract: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a worldwide epidemic, with over 42 million people currently infected. Since the discovery of HIV as the causative agent of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), many potential vaccines have been created. The first of these vaccines presented disappointing results; however, that has not deterred researchers from continuing to develop more potential HIV vaccines. This article will review the various current HIV vaccine candidates under study.
