Reclaiming my time, I was not referring to a vaccine at all. There is very substantive research in front of us today that says that we will be able to prolong significantly the occurrence from HIV to AIDS infection with some of the very, very new and miltidrug trials. The latest studies coming out say that that is so. Therefore, it is eminently important that people who have HIV be identified now.
