In Japan, a team of scientists from the National Institute for Biomedical Innovation, Health and Nutrition has completed trials of an HIV vaccine in cynomolgus monkeys. About this on Wednesday, November 10, writes The Asahi Shimbun. It is reported that the primates were injected with a full-fledged virus. Six out of seven experimental animals did not get sick, and tests did not reveal the virus. Scientists hope to start human testing of vaccine in five years. HIV is the abbreviated name for the human immunodeficiency virus, i.e..

a virus that attacks the human immune system. In Ukraine, according to estimates, 250 thousand people live with the immunodeficiency virus. More than 20 thousand new cases are registered annually. Recall, scientists have discovered in the cells of mice and monkeys a previously unknown protein retroCHMP3, which blocks the formation of new particles of HIV and the Ebola virus.
