WASHINGTON (AP) ? A pill that has long been used to treat HIV has moved one step closer to becoming the first drug approved to prevent healthy people from becoming infected with the virus that causes AIDS.

The Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday that Gilead Sciences’ Truvada appears to be safe and effective for HIV prevention. It concluded that taking the pill daily could spare patients “infection with a serious and life-threatening illness that requires lifelong treatment.”

On Thursday a panel of FDA advisers will consider the review when it votes on whether Truvada should be approved as a preventative treatment for people who are at high risk of contracting HIV through sexual intercourse. The FDA is not required to follow the advice of its panels, but it usually does.

An estimated 1.2 million Americans have HIV, which attacks the immune system and, unless treated with antiviral drugs, develops into AIDS, a fatal condition in which the body cannot fight off infections. If Truvada is approved, it would be a major breakthrough in the 30-year campaign against the AIDS epidemic. There have been no other drugs proven to prevent HIV and a vaccine is believed to be decades away.

Gilead Sciences Inc., based in Foster City, Calif., has marketed Truvada since 2004 as a treatment for people who are infected with the virus. The medication is a combination of two older HIV drugs, Emtriva and Viread. Doctors usually prescribe the medications as part of a drug cocktail that makes it harder for the virus to reproduce. Patients with low viral levels have reduced symptoms and are far less likely to develop AIDS.

Researchers first reported that Truvada could prevent people from contracting HIV in 2010. A three-year study found that daily doses cut the risk of infection in healthy gay and bisexual men by 44 percent, when accompanied by condoms and counseling. Another study found that Truvada reduced infection by 75 percent in heterosexual couples in which one partner was infected with HIV and the other was not.

Because Truvada is already on the market to manage HIV, some doctors already prescribe it as a preventive measure. But FDA approval would allow the drugmaker Gilead Sciences to formally market its drug for that use.

FDA reviewers on Tuesday said that patients must be diligent about taking the pill every day if using it as a preventative measure. Adherence to the medication was less than perfect in clinical trials, and reviewers said that patients in the real world may forget to take their medication even more than those in clinical studies.

Some patient advocacy groups say the drug is an important new option to prevent HIV, alongside condoms, counseling and other measures. Last month, advocacy group AIDS United and more than a dozen other groups sent a letter to the FDA, urging approval of Truvada.

“If we’re going to reduce the more than 50,000 new HIV infections in this country each year, we need to increase the available options for people,” said Ronald Johnson, AIDS United’s vice president.

But support for FDA approval is not unanimous.

Although the FDA is legally barred from considering cost when reviewing drugs, health care providers have raised concerns about Truvada’s price tag: $900 a month, or just under $11,000 per year. Medicare and Medicaid, the nation’s largest health insurance plans, generally cover drugs approved by the FDA, and analysts expect most large health insurers to follow suit.

Additionally, some researchers say the prevention pill is not the chemical equivalent of condoms, which they say remain the best weapon against AIDS. They also worry about Truvada’s mixed success rate in preventing infection among women: Last year, a study in women was stopped early after researchers found that women taking the drug were more likely to become infected than those taking placebo.

Researchers speculated that women may require a higher dose of the drug to prevent infection. They also said the disappointing results may have resulted from women not taking the pills consistently.

“We know that if the person doesn’t take the medication every day they will not be protected,” said Dr. Rodney Wright, director of HIV programs at Montefiore Medical Center in New York and chairman of the AIDS Health Foundation. “So the concern is that there may not be adequate adherence to provide protection in the general population.”

NEW YORK (AP) ? (at)BarackObama is on Twitter. So is (at)MittRomney. And so are all the voters following the 2012 presidential contest, whether they know it or not.

Candidates, strategists, journalists and political junkies have all flocked to Twitter, the social networking hub where information from the mundane to the momentous is shared through 140-character microbursts known as tweets.

While relatively few voters are on Twitter ? a study by the Pew Research Center found that about 13 percent of American adults have joined the site ? it’s become an essential tool for campaigns to test-drive themes and make news with a group of politically wired “influencers” who process and share those messages with the broader world.

Put simply: When a voter is exposed to any information related to the presidential contest, chances are it’s been through the Twitter filter first.

“The subset of people on Twitter may be relatively small, but it’s a politically engaged audience whose influence extends both online and off,” said Heather LaMarre, a University of Minnesota communications professor who studies social media. “It’s not the direct message that has the biggest influence on people ? it’s the indirect message.”

No one believes the campaign will be won or lost on Twitter ? it’s just one slice of an enormous communication effort the presidential campaigns are waging in cyberspace. But with a well-timed 140-character blast, candidates influence coverage, respond to charges or reinforce talking points.

This, of course, is not the first time technology has changed the way campaigns are conducted. Radio, TV and the Internet all prompted campaigns to adapt, giving both more avenues to reach voters and more control of their message. But radio and television are top-down mediums at heart ? from the broadcaster to the public. Never before has a grassroots technology like Twitter given both voice and power to millions ? and given candidates a real-time way to monitor the effects of their messages and recalibrate on the fly.

And that means an ever-changing campaign narrative for 2012.

Four years ago, Twitter was still in relative infancy and just 1.8 million tweets were sent on Election Day 2008. Now, Twitter gets that many approximately every eight minutes.

Obama’s 2012 State of the Union address drew 800,000 tweets, Twitter said. And tweets mentioning Rick Santorum jumped from 10-20 per minute to over 2,500 tweets per minute when news broke that he was suspending his bid for the Republican presidential nomination.

Both the Obama and Romney campaigns have actively embraced Twitter, using it to communicate directly with supporters and, more importantly, drive the political conversation in a way that reaches far beyond the site. They’re also mindful of the hazards of Twitter, designating war room staffers to monitor the site for problems to address or gaffes from their rivals to exploit.

“Our team understands that the most important issues in this campaign are jobs and the economy, not the Twitter controversy of the day,” Romney spokesman Ryan Williams said. “But we need to be on top of everything and monitor every aspect of this race. Twitter helps us keep our finger on the pulse of the fast moving pace of new media.”

Twitter’s impact was on vivid display last week.

Obama, warning a college audience that interest rates on their federal student loans could double if Congress doesn’t act soon, urged students to make their voices heard on Twitter.

“Tweet them! Teach your parents how to tweet!” Obama said, asking them to add the hash tag (hash)dontdoublemyrate.

The Obama campaign’s introduction of a campaign tool named Julia also showcased what both parties will do to get the last word on Twitter.

The Obama team unveiled an interactive slideshow on its website showing how a hypothetical woman named Julia whom the campaign says would benefit from the president’s policies throughout her life.

“Follow Julia from age 3 to 67,” the Obama campaign tweeted with a link to the tool ? all but guaranteeing a level of buzz among Twitter users that then spilled into other social media and into reporters’ stories.

Republicans, for their part, moved quickly on Twitter to respond ? tying Julia to the persistent weak economy.

“Did u tell (hash)Julia how much debt you left her?” Republican National Committee spokesman Sean Spicer tweeted.

“Based on today’s bad unemployment report, it appears that Julia has given up looking for work,” former George W. Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer tweeted after Friday’s unemployment figures showed tepid job growth.

Twitter’s warp speed presents both an opportunity and a challenge to campaigns ever vigilant about maintaining message discipline.

The Romney campaign sought to seize advantage after Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen remarked that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee’s wife, Ann, a stay at home mother of 5 sons, had “never worked a day in her life.” Polls show Romney lagging badly among women voters, and his advisers have sought ways to mitigate the gender gap.

After Rosen’s comments on CNN quickly exploded ? on Twitter ? the Romney campaign launched a Twitter feed from the candidate’s wife.

“I made a choice to stay home and raise five boys. Believe me, it was hard work,” (at)AnnDRomney said in her first-ever tweet. “All moms are entitled to choose their path,” came her second.

Ann Romney’s engagement on Twitter quickly earned her several thousand followers on the site. But it also scored news headlines and helped cast Democrats as unsympathetic to women who stay home with children ? a score for the Romney campaign that went far beyond the Twitter audience.

Twitter has also caused both campaigns plenty of headaches.

The Obama team was forced onto defense during the Rosen controversy, even though she has no connection to the president’s re-election effort. The campaign deployed Michelle Obama to push back on Rosen.

“Every mother works hard and every woman deserves to be respected,” the first lady tweeted.

In February, Romney delivered an economic speech at Ford Field in Detroit ? a must-win primary state for the Michigan native as he battled rival Santorum for the GOP nomination.

But hours earlier, reporters began tweeting photos of the nearly empty football arena and the small section of it reserved for Romney’s event. By the time the former Massachusetts governor delivered the address, the ill-chosen venue had become the story instead.

Twitter helped lead to the resignation of a Romney foreign policy spokesman this week. Richard Grenell stepped down from his post in part because of caustic tweets he had sent about a host of public figures including Rachel Maddow and Newt and Callista Gingrich.

Indeed, Tom Rosenstiel, director of the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism, said the snark factor is one of Twitter’s biggest pitfalls.

“You’re more likely to be embarrassed by what’s said on Twitter than to be praised,” Rosenstiel said. “The things that go viral tend to be jokes and tend to be mocking.”

But, he added, “Twitter has this quality of being an alert system that elevates it above the number of people using it.”

How unthinkable it was, not so long ago, that a presidential election would pit a candidate fathered by an African against another condemned as un-Christian.

Yet here it is: Barack Obama versus Mitt Romney, an African-American and a white Mormon, representatives of two groups and that have endured oppression to carve out a place in the United States.

How much progress has America made against bigotry? By November, we should have some idea.

Perhaps mindful of the lingering power of prejudice, both men soft-pedal their status as racial or religious pioneers. But these things “will be factors whether they’re explicitly stated or not, because both Obama and Romney are minorities,” said Nancy Wadsworth, co-editor of the anthology “Faith and Race in American Political Life.”

Mormons are 1.7 percent of the U.S. population, according to the Pew Research Center. African-Americans are 12.6 percent

“Americans like to obsess about ways that people are different,” said Wadsworth, a political science professor at the University of Denver. Voters of all types say that a candidate’s race or religious beliefs should not be cause for bias, “but Americans are really conflicted about this, and they talk out of both sides of their mouth.”

In an October 2011 Associated Press-GfK poll, 21 percent of respondents said they would be less likely to cast a presidential vote for a Mormon. Four percent said they would be less likely to vote for a black person. An AP poll during the 2008 campaign found that nearly 40 percent of white Americans had at least a partly negative view of black people.

The gap between America’s high-minded ideals and narrow-minded practice is not new.

In 1620, the Puritans landed on Plymouth Rock searching for religious freedom. The Constitution forbade a religious test for president. Still, the religion of presidential candidates historically has been a major issue, though nearly all have been Protestant.

Thomas Jefferson, who coined the phrase “separation between church and state,” was decried as godless. Nearly 160 years later, John F. Kennedy was tarred as a Roman Catholic who would answer to the pope instead of the American people.

In 1787, the same colonists who had demanded equal rights in their dealings with England wrote a Constitution that reduced blacks to three-fifths of a person. Nearly 80 years would pass before that changed and another century before blacks would be assured the vote.

Obama remains the sole member of the most exclusive club in the world, racial minorities who were nominated for president by a major party.

In 2012, it’s unlikely that more than a smattering of die-hard bigots will be repelled by both presidential choices. But even well-intentioned people can be influenced by the powerful emotional pull of these issues.

Obama has been assailed by racially charged accusations since he became the first black president: Obama isn’t a citizen; he refused to punish New Black Panthers who intimidated white voters; he’s seeking payback for past white racism by redistributing tax money to poor minorities; he’s using the Trayvon Martin killing for political gain.

Wes Anderson, a Republican consultant and pollster, said many white swing voters who chose Obama in 2008 think he has governed further to the left than they expected, which has fed ideas that Obama is a typical “black liberal politician” who is “pandering to minorities.”

“From their perspective, I think race will be a convenient excuse for why he has not met their expectations,” Anderson said.

Wadsworth said that even after three-plus years of a black president, racial bias remains “super-loaded and super-coded.”

“It’s coded into political ‘otherness’ ? he’s a socialist, he’s dangerous, maybe a Muslim,” she said. “I think down underneath there’s a lot of race bias, it’s just that they’ve figured out ways to channel that into seemingly race-neutral codes.”

Then there’s bald racism.

This April, bar owner Patrick Lanzo in Paulding County, Ga., posted a roadside sign outside his establishment that used the n-word to convey his disdain for the president. “I don’t feel bad about (the sign) whatsoever,” Lanzo told Fox 5 News in Atlanta.

Obviously, Obama’s victory in 2008 did not put racial issues to rest. “He is never on stable ground, racially,” Wadsworth observed.

Romney has tried to push past anti-Mormonism, with mixed success. His membership in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been an issue his entire political career.

In 2007, during his presidential primary battle against Arizona Sen. John McCain, he gave a speech to quiet concerns about his faith. “I do not define my candidacy by my religion. A person should not be elected because of his faith nor should he be rejected because of his faith,” Romney said in the address, which used the word “Mormon” only once.

There continue to be blatant expressions of hostility toward Mormons. For example, there is an “I Hate Mormons” page on Facebook.

But J.B. Haws, a historian at Brigham Young University who researches public perception of the Mormon church, said most common suspicions about Mormons were rehashed in the 2008 election and this year’s GOP primary, so moving forward the discussion is likely to be more substantive and informed.

“But that doesn’t change the fact that the questions will still be tough and pointed,” Haws said.

The Mormon church was founded in 1830 by Joseph Smith, who said God directed him to restore the true Christian church by revising parts of the Bible and adding the Book of Mormon as a sacred text. Smith said an angel directed him to a buried holy book in upstate New York, written on golden plates, which he translated from “reformed Egyptian” into the Book of Mormon. Theological differences have led many Christians to conclude that Mormons are not part of historic Christianity.

There’s the issue of polygamy, though the Mormon church renounced the practice in 1890.

Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer, a Democrat, recently took the opportunity of a Daily Beast interview to say that Romney’s father, George, was “born into (a) polygamy commune in Mexico.” (Mitt Romney‘s grandfather, Gaskell, had one wife, but his great-grandfather, Miles Park Romney, had four and fled to Mexico in 1885 to escape U.S. anti-polygamy laws.)

One of the toughest questions probably will focus on the Mormons’ former ban on men of African descent in the priesthood. When the church lifted the prohibition in 1978, leaders didn’t explain the theology behind it. That left questions about church doctrine on race, even though Mormon leaders repeatedly denounce racism.

It’s an issue that Mormons discuss among themselves. But when it’s brought up in a campaign setting, many Mormons say it’s just an attempt to embarrass Romney.

Several conservatives have recently predicted that liberals, rankled by Mormon opposition to gay marriage and emphasis on stay-at-home motherhood, would use religion to “smear” Romney. “It’s way out of bounds, but that’s what’s going to happen,” said a prominent Mormon, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah.

But liberals are not the only ones who are suspicious of the Mormons. Vice President Joe Biden told Esquire magazine that faith shouldn’t be a factor in elections, so “that’s why I’m so angry about the way they’re treating Romney.” By “they,” Biden probably was focusing on evangelicals, who make up a big part of the GOP base.

When Liberty University, the school founded by the late Rev. Jerry Falwell, announced Romney as commencement speaker on May 12, hundreds of angry comments were posted on Liberty’s Facebook page by people who said they were students or alumni, objecting to giving a Mormon a platform. The school responded by affirming its welcome to Romney.

But evangelicals are among the country’s most politically conservative voters, and “they’re going to hold their nose and vote for Romney. They’re certainly not going to join the Obama campaign,” said Patrick Mason, author of “The Mormon Menace: Violence and Anti-Mormonism in the Postbellum South.”

Anderson, the pollster, said his research has found that evangelicals know more than other groups about what Mormons actually believe, and despite their religious differences tend to view Mormon values as positive.

“Is the bigger problem for Romney not evangelical Christians, but more secular voters who are skeptical of what Mormonism is, or just ignorant?” Anderson asked.

Perhaps it is just their growing hostility to religion in general, Mason said. “Mormonism becomes the lens through which they can paint their critique.”

Regardless, the Romney campaign “would be crazy if they didn’t have a plan in place already” to deal with Mormon bias, said Mark Noll, a University of Notre Dame historian who wrote “God and Race in American Politics,” ”just like Obama’s people are just dusting off whatever they had ready in 2008.”

In 2008, racial issues threatened to torpedo Obama after the emergence of militant pro-black sermons by his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright. Obama defused the issue with a major speech on race, but the Wright connection fed a GOP narrative that Obama was not “one of us.” Democrats labeled such statements coded language that appealed to racial prejudices.

In the final stages of his losing campaign, McCain declined entreaties from some advisers to use Wright’s sermons to attack Obama.

“John McCain, whatever else you want to say about him, did not use all the racial weapons he could have used,” said Randall Kennedy, a Harvard Law School professor and author of “The Persistence of the Color Line: Racial Politics and the Obama Presidency.”

“Well, McCain lost,” Kennedy continued. “I can’t help but think that this time around, if there is anything that could plausibly be used, no matter how ugly, it will be used. So I anticipate a very messy, ugly campaign.”

“I hope I’m wrong,” Kennedy said, “but I expect it to be worse.”
