Shots in the Dark : The Wayward Search for an AIDS Vaccine Paperback / softback
by Jon Cohen
Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
When scientists proved in 1984 that HIV causes AIDS, a vaccine race spun into action.
But the sprint to develop an AIDS vaccine now more closely resembles a crawl.
Jon Cohen elucidates the forces that have hindered the search: unforeseen scientific obstacles, clashing personalities, the uncertain marketplace, haphazard political organization, and serious ethical dilemmas.
Beyond a powerful critique, Cohen also offers specific recommendations for accelerating the effort.
