 AB    OBJECTIVE: To verify the contributions which people living with AIDS can
       give, through your organized groups to the discussions about researchs
       with applicant products to vaccine. METHODS: This study had come from
       NGO's/AIDS participations at preliminary and following discussions with
       Rio researches centers and National Vaccine Committee. We have verified
       on behavior and ethics a no organization of any common practice, with
       agreement to the general points already accepted about well-known
       vaccines used against other infections, wich are not caused by HIV, and
       however fundamental disagreements that had impeded cooperation terms. It
       has been researched all debates in that two NGO's forums and meetings
       and workshops, as well in the documental registers. RESULTS: Are
       singular contributions from people living with AIDS: 1) Change of
       epidemiological model refered to sexual orientation; 2) Revision of
       incurrence/intervention relation on incurrence researches; 3)
       Researcher/infected person relation is potentiated by organized groups
       of HIV bearer; 4) The prejudice come from researchers attitudes, without
       they have conscious of it. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: With the AIDS it
       has rupture in ethics of traditional research while code, and rise new
       emergencies in this area. The suggestion of Pela VIDDA Group Juridical
       Service in those discussions is chiefly to hear the people living with
       AIDS, from which are particulary possible the productions in one
       necessary logic of the risk.
