A team of AIDS researchers, including two Harvard biostatisticians, published an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association last week detailing the failures of an HIV vaccine, despite the protests of the study's sponsor.
While the firm maintains it should have a role in shaping the study's analysis, the scientists--whose findings indicated the HIV vaccine was a dud--said scientific freedom was their guiding principle.
She said UHS officials noticed that the vaccine was effective in preventing the virus on campus.
"The flu's really easy to get here, and I can't afford to be sick," said Alice O. Wong '04. "So why not [get the vaccine]?"
Other students said they were not planning on getting the vaccine.
