From L : ANRS (Natioanl Agency for AIDS Research) director Professor Jean-François Delfraissy, ANRS Vaccine Research director Yves Levy, France's ambassador in charge of the fight against infectious diseases Professor Patrice Debre, Sanofi-Aventis general director Christopher A. Viehbacher and Sanofi-Pasteur senior Vice-President Research and Development Michel De Wilde give a press conference on September 24, 2009 in Paris presenting the results of the collaborative HIV vaccine trial that has been conducted in Bangkok (Thailand) over the past six years. An experimental AIDS vaccine has for the first time cut the risk of infection in humans in what scientists called a "breakthrough" in the quarter-century fight against the epidemic. The vaccine reduced the chance of being infected by a third, researchers announced after the world's largest trial of 16,000 volunteers, carried out by the US Army and Thailand's Ministry of Public Health.
