cytotoxic T-cells so that when it would come into contact with a live form of the virus, the body would already have immunity to it (Gilbert, 2012). The problem with this assumption is that for it to work the virus must maintain the same shape and the HIV virus changes shape. During clinical trials, the researchers tested the vaccine on humans who had high rates of preexisting immunity to adenovirus 5 (Aderem, 2011). These test subjects should have been even more likely to experience successful results
