There is a difference between "killing a virus" and getting cured of the virus. They had drugs that kills the virus but the human cells makes poor copies of the virus which allows it can avoid the drug.My cousin just read an article about a new treatment/drug that kills HIV, sounds pretty excellent to me !!

Oh well, we can pray. And take the necessary steps to never contract the virusesThere is a difference between "killing a virus" and getting cured of the virus. They had drugs that kills the virus but the human cells makes poor copies of the virus which allows it can avoid the drug.
Noting that living for decades does not equate with a normal lifespan ... or normal quality of life.It's not the death sentence it was in the 80s and 90s when people who were HIV positive had AIDS and it progressed quickly and devastatingly. Nowadays people can live for decades with the virus.
My friend lives a pretty normal life. She's able to have sex, go to church and help take care of her grand child. And stay alive and watch her kids grow up and have children. That sounds like a pretty normal quality of life. I'm sure in her early days it wasn't all perfect, but life is pretty good now.Noting that living for decades does not equate with a normal lifespan ... or normal quality of life.
The real question is does he know whom he got it from. Some people say dirty needles, from drug use. But he's rich and should be able to get clean needles. Or maybe he didn't use needles at all. People don't want to believe heterosexuals get HIV from sleeping around. Some seem to believe only gay people or drug addicts get HIV. It could be sleeping around or needle drug use.Anyone want start guessing as to how he got it? Bonus points for specificity.
If it was contaminated equipment during a blood transfusion, there are going to be a few red faces around here...

WORLD EXCLUSIVE! CHARLIE SHEEN IS HIV POSITIVE — INSIDE HIS SHOCKING DIAGNOSIS
Decades of debauchery have finally caught up to Charlie Sheen.
In a bombshell world exclusive, The National ENQUIRER can reveal that the bad boy actor has been hiding an explosive secret from the world: He is HIV positive.
No. They don't. All are caveated.
Your first link ... "promising"
Second ... "candidate" drug
Third ... "may help"
As of today, there are no verified cures for HIV.
Noting finally, that those same caveats have been used for AIDS treatments for decades.
Noting that plenty of people out there contract HIV through no fault of their own whatsoever. Sometimes only one person in a monogamous marriage is monogamous, and the one that took that seriously can still get HIV from the one that didn't (that's a not uncommon scenario)- some are born with it- some are virgins who are raped as a folk cure for those that have HIV- et cetera.Oh well, we can pray. And take the necessary steps to never contract the viruses
No, there is no cure for HIV, however, the current treatments keep the viral load down to such an extent that the mortality rate has flipped from something around 98% to the exact opposite.
Likely true.Yeah, Charlie Sheen has more to worry about the damage from his alcoholism and drug addictions more than his HIV, lol.
