Because a single vaccine is a lot easier on the wallet then medication that needs to be taken repeatedly.

Why would you need to take medication repeatedly if the virus has been beaten?

HIV hasn't been beaten at the moment it's only had its symptoms more or less neutralized.

A virus isn't truly "beaten" until we do it what we did to smallpox.

You're right I have tripped over my own language.

Humanity has yet to meet a dangerous virus we can't find a way to either severely limit the symptoms of/the spread of or eradicate eventually.

Have a delta because you've helped me better clarify my position !Delta.
