WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Johannesburg – CLINICAL trials on new HIV/AIDS treatment and management held in Soweto and Cape Town have given hope to researchers, who are impressed by participation levels.
Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital’s Perinatal HIV Research Unit team leader Prof Glenda Gray said the participation in treatment trials, especially by young people, gave hope that the spread of the virus could be arrested.
The HIV clinical vaccine trials involve a preventative and a therapeutic approach. In the preventative approach, HIV-negative volunteers are tested to find out whether the vaccine can prevent infection.
The therapeutic approach attempts to slow down the progression of the disease if infection occurs during the trial, and tests whether the vaccine can boost immune response in HIV-positive volunteers.
The South African AIDS Vaccine Initiative (SAAVI ), in conjunction with the University of Cape Town, developed the two vaccines.
“We are able to understand HIV better because of these trials, and we can always improve on our designs.
“I am hopeful we will be able to corner this virus in the next few years because people are helping us set-up an agenda,” Gray said.
SAAVI’s interim director Elise Levendal said the Desmond Tutu’s HIV Centre in Cape Town would be another site to conduct the trials.
She said the country was one of the few developing nations to have developed an HIV vaccine and to have progressed it into human clinical trials.
“There is still a long way to go before we will know if these products will be successful in preventing HIV infection,” she said.
