Virus Developped to Kill HIV Virus - GoFuckYourself.com

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 ?

all tax money went to kill people in other countries

Illicit · 05-13-2004, 06:54 PM

wow I hope it works out, they are still a long ways away from anything that could be used for patients.

Sometimes it costs billions to get the right minds thinking about it. Just because they did it with such a little amount doesnt really mean jack.

Hell I am sure some of their equipment cost more than 200k

Here is the OPERATIVE sentence from that publication:
"They've tested the theory in a computer model and in cells in a dish." Computer model an petrie dish ain't a human being.
God wishing they HAD developed a cure, but they haven't.
So ya gotta be careful about posting "found a virus to kill hiv" as it hasn't even been tested on ANIMALS yet.

Potato potatoe...developed/discovered/found..all pretty similar.
I really have no big problem with it..my biggest problem frankly are the folks that see something like that and think "Oh good! A cure!"
