HIV/AIDS: Vaccination
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what funding and resources are being allocated to support ongoing clinical trials and research for HIV vaccines within the UK.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
The Department funds research through the National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR). The NIHR funds clinical research into HIV as well as vaccine development, however, it is not currently funding any trials on HIV vaccines. The NIHR welcomes research proposals on candidates that are ready to be trialled in humans.
