If you like innovations in this field, keep an eye out for the "Lactobacillus jensenii"
It's a bacteria found in the woman's vagina and scientists have been able to modify it so it creates a protein which is deadly for the HIV-virus.
They have made it into a gel and have tested it on rhesus monkeys by putting the gel in their vaginas. Then injected their vaginas's with HIV.
The infection rate decreased by 63%.
