Good news: HIV killing condom invented

Australian researchers have developed a virus-killing condom, and recent government approval means it's one step closer to hitting the market.

Vivagel is a newly developed antiviral compound that has been shown to disable 99.9 percent of HIV, herpes, and other sexually transmitted viruses in laboratory tests. Developed by Australian biotech firm Starpharma, the gel has been incorporated into condoms made by Ansell, the world’s second largest condom manufacturer, to help stem the spread of these viruses.
