Australian Scientists Discover Potential Aids Cure

Posted by samzenpus on from the saving-lives dept.

smi.james.th writes "Several sites report that Australian researcher David Harrich and his team have potentially discovered a way to stop HIV becoming AIDS and ultimately cure the disease. From the article: 'What we've actually done is taken a normal virus protein that the virus needs to grow, and we've changed this protein, so that instead of assisting the virus, it actually impedes virus replication and does it quite strongly.' This could potentially hail one of modern medicine's greatest victories."

    I'd agree. It's the same reason they will never cure cancer.

    Hilarious. If HIV is THAT easily transmitted, and HIV is the cause of 'AIDS', then MILLIONS of people should be dying every year in the United States, since MILLIONS of people contract other STDs in EXACTLY the manner you describe. LOL.

    You're an idiot, you have no clue as to what is going on, you don't know what 'AIDS' is.
    Can you show me any EVIDENCE of 'HIV' passing through a mucosal membrane? i.e. a witnessed event, not 'somebody said that they didn't have a sore on their penis but DID somehow get 'HIV', and they definitely weren't engaging in anal sex with gay men, they said so'. You cretin.

    You have no idea of what the scientific method is - here's a clue - it isn't being applied to 'HIV' and 'AIDS', because there is so much MONEY involved.

    Did you read that webpage?

    'AIDS' is a gigantic fraud, the biggest medical fraud ever perpetrated against the people of this planet. And it's all possible because MOST people are ignorant cretings like YOU, who believe everything the T.V. tells them, and refuse to question anything.

    Since the number of people infected with STDs is rising every year, due to more and more people having more sexual partners, and not using condoms, why aren't there more and more people dying of 'AIDS'? Don't tell me - the 'wonder drugs' are magically saving their lives!
