  • Australia has scrapped a $750 million project after some participants in a vaccine trial falsely tested positive for HIV.
  • It is the first time a country has abandoned a vaccine attempt.
  • Health Minister Greg Hunt said Friday the trial vaccine, developed by the University of Queensland and the biotech firm CSL, "triggered an antibody response that could interfere with HIV screening."
  • The University of Queensland said the trial vaccine had shown promising signs in combating COVID-19 and that "routine follow up tests confirmed there is no HIV virus present."
  • To compensate for the cancellation, Australia has increased its orders of vaccines developed by AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Novavax, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said.
