Aids

This may seem like a rhetorical question but I'll ask it anyway.

Why haven't they been able to produce an AIDS vaccine in more than 40 years, yet it took less than a year to produce a Covid-19 vaccine?

AIDS is still today considered to be a pandemic, has killed more than 37 million people, yet a vaccine eludes Big Pharma. Isn't that strange?

COVID lasts a few days or weeks and then goes away permanently. Most people don't even go for a doctors visit and they usually don't consume much in terms of pharmaceuticals. Therefore, there isn't much money to be made by the pharmaceutical industry from COVID.

AIDS/HIV on the other hand lives in you for years, and many people have been living with it for decades. During that time you can consume many pricey pharma products to keep your viral load low. It is a big money maker for pharma.

So what is the incentive for them to develop an AIDS vaccine? :lazy:
