Unfortunately, the AIDS virus has been very difficult to fight. Scientist
have to be careful about announcing results that don't hold up to final
scrutiny, and each time that there is another failure (like the recent
results on the HIV vaccine), it is more fuel for this kind of politicizing.
An NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) report
can be found at

There are a lot of people working on HIV. The reason progress is
not made more rapidly is because it is just plain difficult to solve.
The entire Christian community is being asked to listen to a lawyer
and a renegade scientist to save the world from perhaps the most
pernicious retrovirus ever to invade the human race. Yet even
worse is ignoring the fact that the virus will likely find a way to
infect the population at large. It is an excellent example of hubris.
