Competing Interests
The authors have read the journal’s policy and have the following conflicts: MDM is an employee and stock holder of Gilead Sciences, Inc. RWS is an employee of Research ThinkTank, Inc. MJK serves as principal investigator for studies from which Yale University receives grant support from Merck, Pfizer, Gilead, Abbott, Glaxo Smith Kline and Bristol-Myers Squibb. MJK receives royalties from a patent owned by Stanford University for some HIV diagnostic tests. This does not alter the authors’ adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
