True that there is such a thing as a live attenuated virus vaccine, but
I don't know if any have EVER worked. The best method is to make a "dead
whole virus" vaccine.  This would be done by irradiating the virus with
UV radiation and is the common method for many vaccines.  Until they do
this for HIV instead of messing around with all the experimental
designer vaccines, they are not making an honest effort.
