Man Cured Of HIV! - BFritz21 - 08-01-2022 In the "Holy Grail" moment of medical research, a man was cured of HIV! I didn't think this was possible in our lifetime, but hopefully there's more medical breakthroughs to come because a 66-year-old man was cured of HIV after receiving a stem cell donation for leukemia treatment from someone that naturally resistant to the virus, which I didn't even know was possible! Quote:A 66-year-old man in California has been cured of HIV after he received a stem cell donation for leukemia from a donor who was naturally resistant to the virus. That's all pretty unbelievable and goes to show the promise that stem cells hold in everything! RE: Man Cured Of HIV! - NATI BENGALS - 08-02-2022 Wow. Sounds like they are hinting at a potential CRISPR shot at the end there. Haven’t heard much about progress on CRISPR cures but I have been out of the loop for the most part on science stuff. I’m sure there is a lot in the works RE: Man Cured Of HIV! - BigPapaKain - 08-02-2022 Won't see this story on the evening news, but a welcome change to the depressing discussions we normally have around here. Bets on how long this one takes to devolve into a discussion about the use of stem cells?

Or how we shouldn't save "the gheys" because they chose to lead a sinful lifestyle.
