Cure for HIV?


http://my.webmd.com/content/article/...000_5024_hv_03

I'm wondering if they will be able to produce a vaccine to cure the people with HIV. If they are able to cure them we should defiantly have our countries pay for it just like they did with small pox.

I agree.. It would be awesome if they started being able to cure all of these nasty diseases. So many people die over it and I think it would be great just as any other person feels.

I do believe that the countries/government should fund it... (if they arent already) I didnt read the whole thing but skimmed through it.

Good Read.

It worked in mice. It worked in monkeys. And now in humans, a therapeutic vaccine has stopped HIV in its tracks.
Sounds like a cure! Probably still years away that's why it didn't make the major news.

Awesome, we can now have unprotected sex and not have to worry about anything but a little portal running around the house.

Nah, I'm kidding. This is fantastic news.

I'm hoping you're only being sarcastic. If not, that has to be one of the more uneducated comments I've seen here in some time!

Nice link, Kerry!

Don't even get me started on you. I help run the largest libertarian forum on the internet and you would hardly count as one.

Go pick up a woman in Africa and see if its hard to contract. I recall the chances of being infected there is 1 in 5. If i'm wrong please correct me.

Many women in Africa are brutally raped and sodomized.

So you're saying if you have intercourse with someone infected in Africa, you will not get it?

I didn't know what sodomized was but http://www.cogsci.princeton.edu/cgi-...=1&word=sodomy

So if you don't do 'sodomy' you won't get HIV? That's FALSE

Also, what about a newborn who is infected?

I didn't say you wouldn't get it but the chance of you getting it decrease significantly. If you engage in anal sex you are 12 times more likely to contract aids then if you don't, which is why the disease infects a much higher rate of gay men.
