Tenofovir Vaginal Gel First Microbicide to Prevent HIV, HSV Infections

Some good news in the fight against HIV. A new vaginal Gel has been developed that has the potential to bring down the rate of infection of HIV. Although in its 2b stage of clinical trial, I think the idea itself is great as HIV today is a epidemic mainly in the developing part of the globe, and given its cost-effectiveness (which i hope so) , it should have a better acceptability in the society. Combined with a condom ( all condoms should be premedicated with this gel) and HIV might soon be in the list of eliminated diseases. hoping for d best.
