HIV epidemic can be stopped by 2030 HIV epidemic could be stopped by the year 2030, according to a report released by analysts from Futures Group and international AIDS vaccine initiative in the AIDS vaccines ’06 conference in Amsterdam. Nearly 20% of the HIV infections that are expected to occur in the period from 2015-2030 can be prevented by administering vaccines to high-risk groups in countries like Brazil and South Africa. According to a WHO estimate, AIDS has killed nearly 25 million people since this disease was first identified in the year 1981. There is no cure for this disease and the only treatment available is designed to reduce the severity of the disease through an ‘anti-retroviral therapy’. Futures Group and International AIDS Vaccine Initiative, say that administering HIV vaccines to the bulk of the people living in countries suffering from HIV epidemic, it is possible to prevent 27 million new infections in the period from 2015 to 2030.
