Seattle HIV Vaccine Trials Unit
HIV is everywhere, and it’s not going
away. Yet.
The Seattle HIV Vaccine Trials Unit
(HVTU) is currently conducting research studies to try to
find a vaccine that would prevent HIV infections.
There’s no doubt that the world is desperately in need of an
HIV vaccine.

estimated that 1 million people are HIV infected. CDC 2008 |

The number of people living with HIV infection in the US (HIV prevalence) is higher than ever before. CDC Aug 2011 |

come soon enough. Check out our site and if you have any questions e-mail us at info@seattlevaccines.org, call us at 206.667.2300 or click here to tell us about yourself!
