 * Symbol confirmed.svg - Good to go!


 * New – Article created yesterday
 * Long enough – the prose portion is at least 1,500 characters
 * Within policy – The article is neutral, has lots of inline citations and I cannot find any copyright violations.
 * Hook - The hook is fewer than 200 characters, is interesting and is accurately cited in the article. It is neutral, even though it is regarding a diagnosis of HIV, the subject of the DYK (Josh Robbins) is very open about it and actively publishes his diagnosis.
 * QPQ – Done.

I made a little amendment to the article just to make it a bit clearer; I hope you don;t mind. This was a very interesting read, I love the amount of references! Well done OwenBlacker

 * I don't mind at all, Stacey — it hadn't occurred to me that people might have thought the HIV could have come from the vaccine, so it's definitely a useful clarification :o) — OwenBlacker (Talk) 18:40, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
