    Author : Andreas Bråve; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Since the start of the global HIV epidemic in 1981, more than twentyfive million people have succumbed to AIDS-related diseases. The epidemic is most severe in Sub-Saharan Africa, where twentyfive million people are currently infected and more than two million died during 2006. READ MORE

  7. 15. Evaluation of vaccine candidates for HIV prevention in Tanzania

    Author : Frank Msafiri; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: This thesis describes the capability of an HIV-1 DNA and HIV-1 modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) prime boost vaccination strategy to elicit immune responses known to correlate with reduced risk of HIV infection. Additionally, it describes the confounding effect of vaccine-induced HIV antibodies on the performance of HIV testing algorithms in sub-Saharan Africa, as well as the recruitment and preparation of a cohort of female sex workers (FSW) for potential participation in an HIV vaccine efficacy trial.
