Occasionally I see ads for participants in HIV Vaccine trials. I wonder, what does this entail for the person?
Because, it'd seem in order to test a vaccine, someone must be exposed to the virus after inoculation. Otherwise, how would anyone know the vaccine's effectiveness.
SO, are trial participants expected to receive the vaccine and knowingly participate in unprotected sex, to see whether or not they contract HIV? And if so, who would participate in something like that?
