Peter,

>>>as time goes on, the first population will make up a greater and greater proportion of the total, so any PI which has been widely used will become less and less effective in supposedly PI-naive patients.>>>

This assumes the mutated strains are as transmissable as the wild type, something I don't think anyone knows. Also, at least in the US, the dominant population for Viracept is by far those patients who are already infected today (and perhaps are not yet diagnosed) rather than brand new infections.
