No More Condoms? Scientists Finally Find A Cure For HIV! by bamidell(m): 6:42pm On Mar 24, 2016
For years, people were wondering when can they
stop wearing condoms while having s*x with their
partners, well it looks like the time is right
around the corner.
It seems the long awaited cure for human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) - a lentivirus that
causes HIV infection and over time acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome, AIDS, has been
invented by scientists.
Below is how popular U.S gossip website,
MediaTakeOut reported the story;
For years, people were wondering WHEN CAN
THEY REMOVE THEIR CONDOMS . . . well it looks
like it's right around the corner.
Scientists have for the FIRST TIME EVER - proved
that they can CURE HIV. Yesterday scientists
CONFIRMED that they were able to edit out HIV-1
DNA from the genome of human immune cells,
preventing virus replication and reinfection of
the cleared cells.
In layman's language, they used GENE THERAPY
to cure HIV in HUMAN cells.
Dr. Kamel Khalili, director of the Comprehensive
NeuroAIDS Center at Temple University claims
that they are ready to put his new gene therapy
into a new drug that will cure HIV in patients
even after they stop taking the drugs.
"The findings are important on multiple levels.
They demonstrate the effectiveness of our gene
editing system in eliminating HIV from the DNA
of CD4 T-cells and, by introducing mutations into
the viral genome, permanently inactivating its
replication. Further, they show that the system
can protect cells from reinfection and that the
technology is safe for the cells, with no toxic
effects," Khalili said in a press releases
