First Documented Case of Child Cured of HIV
[quote]Dr. Deborah Persaud of Johns Hopkins University today described the first documented case of a child being cured of HIV. The landmark findings were announced at the 2013 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Atlanta, GA.[/quote]So, it looks as though HIV can now be cured in infants. Chalk up another victory on the board for medical science.

2 回复Hmmm...we haven't had a Pope for almost a week, and we've already cured AIDS? Coincidence?

7 回复Well not "cured" as in everyone who has it can get the virus wiped clean from their bodies. It only works on newborn infants within days of birth.

What an encouraging story, truly. This is why you provide funding for scientific research. I'm very interested to see how this child's immune system will develop. I certainly hope that this test for HIV after the retroviral treatment was exhaustive. It would be quite unfortunate if it was a false negative.

10 回复[quote]The only other documented case of an HIV cure to date remains that of Timothy Brown, the so-called "Berlin patient." In 2006, while on treatment for HIV, Mr. Brown was diagnosed with leukemia. His physician was able to treat his leukemia with a stem-cell transplant from a person who was born with a genetic mutation causing immunity to HIV infection. Following the transplant, Mr. Brown was able to stop HIV treatment without experiencing a return of his HIV disease.[/quote]why the fuck aren't we doing this, or at least growing the gene in bacteria
