Peter:

I said "not positive", not "bad".

Peter, this is my (naive) seat of the pants attempt to read Rick's mind on this issue:

It would be good for Remune if it somehow ended up producing the same effect as the new Pitt therapy. The fact that Remune, by design, is unlikely to create a gp-120 dependent response may mean that it will not fully "mimic" the Pitt therapy. As Rick later said, not "bad news," but not as good as it could be either.

Not sure if it has been mentioned here before, but the July issue of Scientific American has a series of articles on "Defeating AIDS" Of particular interest is the article by Baltimore and Heilman on prospects for HIV vaccines. Perhaps not much new for those who follow the field closely, but useful for the rest of us.
