BREAKING: Doctors Have FOUND A Potential TREATMENT That RIDS AIDS From The Body

Doctors in California have reportedly found a possible treatment that completely removed HIV and AIDS from a person. Their patient, a Brazilian man, was one of 5 people for whom the treatment completely ridded AIDS from his body.

Stamford Advocate broke the news:

The case needs independent verification and it’s way too soon to speculate about a possible cure, scientists cautioned.

“These are exciting findings but they’re very preliminary,” said Dr. Monica Gandhi, an AIDS specialist at the University of California, San Francisco. “This has happened to one person, and one person only,” and it didn’t succeed in four others given the same treatment, she said.

Another UCSF specialist, Dr. Steven Deeks, said: “This is not a cure,” just an interesting case that merits more study.

The case was described at an AIDS conference where researchers also disclosed an important prevention advance: A shot of an experimental medicine every two months worked better than daily Truvada pills to help keep uninfected gay men from catching HIV from an infected sex partner. Hundreds of thousands of people take these “pre-exposure prevention” pills now and the shot could give a new option, almost like a temporary vaccine.

If this case is confirmed, and the treatment worked, then this is big news for some AIDS patients worldwide, with 1.7 million people infected with AIDS annually and 690,000 dying of the virus. Clearly more research will be needed but the potential to save 20% of all AIDS patients is huge.
