HIV vaccine research is making the search for a COVID-19 vaccine faster, safer and more inclusive. The global COVID-19 response evolves by the day—seemingly, even, by the minute—as the world has watched the tally of experimental diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines tick up into the hundreds. If researchers achieve their goal of making the search for a COVID-19 vaccine the fastest vaccine development effort in history, much of that success will be due to the research knowledge, vaccine platforms, trial networks and community engagement models created through HIV vaccine research.
