The prevention of the mother-to-child transmission component of that initiative was put in place. We insisted on it as a stop-gap measure while a vaccine was still under development, and we hope it will be soon, but we don't know how long that process will take. The infection rate is still approximately three million new infections every year, so CIDA felt it was important to put something in place to address the ongoing infections at the moment.
