Virus Developped to Kill HIV Virus

The treatment is made of a gutted HIV virus. The harmful parts of the virus are removed, and in their place the researchers have inserted a DNA cargo that inhibits HIV's ability to kill immune cells. It latches onto the natural HIV and spreads along with it, even from person to person.

It cost 200 000$ to develop, Where did all the trillions we put into drugs gone ?
