Re: Goa: Compulsory AIDS vaccination mooted

[Guest guest]

FORUM Subscribers,

" Goa assembly Speaker Pratapsingh Rane suggested to the

government to examine a proposal to see if it could make it mandatory

for all couples who are getting married to go in for anti-AIDS

vaccination " "

But, what is this anti-AIDS vaccine ? Has such vaccine already developed ? I do

not have report of any such development. There are a number of vaccines

under trial. But, so far there has been no recommendation for out of

research use.

Dear FORUM Subscribers

This is in reference to GOA developments.

Is anybody knows which Anti AIDS vaccine they are trying to implement ?

Till date to my knowledge there is no such vaccine available except

Researchers are trying hard for it.

Political agencies & NACO -are you aware of the facts which is happening in

GOA ?
