OAK-BROOK,-Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--According to a joint report issued by UNAIDS and WHO, an estimated 39.5
million people globally are living with HIV and an estimated 4.3 million
individuals were newly infected during 2006. An overwhelming proportion
of the people living with HIV are in Sub-Saharan Africa where the
estimated number of people infected is 24.7 million. The number of
people estimated to be living with HIV is 1.2 million in the U.S.,
650,000 in China, and 17,000 in Japan. China's Ministry of Health
expressed recently that the number of people officially reported as
infected by HIV has risen 27.5 percent since the beginning of 2006
according to Xinhua. To curb the global spread of HIV, experts believe
that a vaccine is needed to fight HIV infection.
Bio-Bridge Science, Inc. (OTCBB: BGES) is in development of a promising
new HIV Vaccine that is expected to enter clinical trials in 2007 in
China. The vaccine targets infection in mucosal tissues, which is a
unique approach to prevent and treat HIV infection. The pre-clinical
trials have been done in China and suggest that the vaccine is safe and
effective in the treatment and prevention of HIV. Bio-Bridge is
dedicated to developing this HIV therapeutic and preventive vaccine to
fight HIV/AIDS.
