May 18 is HIV Vaccine Awareness Day

HIV Vaccine Awareness Day is observed each year on May 18. The day serves as an occasion to recognize and thank the many volunteers, community members, health professionals, and scientists working together toward finding an HIV vaccine. This day also serves to highlight the importance of HIV vaccine research. We invite you to explore our HIV Vaccine Awareness Day webpage [en español] to learn more about this observance and HIV vaccine research that is currently in progress.
