    It's about fucking time this AIDS crap was cut.

    The termination is the latest in a series of cuts to H.I.V. research and programs to prevent the disease.

    The Trump administration has dealt a sharp blow to work on H.I.V.
    vaccines, terminating a $258 million program whose work was instrumental
    to the search for a vaccine.

    Officials from the H.I.V. division of the National Institutes of Health delivered the news on Friday to the program’s two leaders, at Duke
    University and the Scripps Research Institute.

    Both teams were collaborating with numerous other research partners. The
    work was broadly applicable to a wide range of treatments for other
    illnesses, from Covid drugs to snake antivenom and therapies for
    autoimmune diseases.
