HIV cure only months away, Danish scientists say, citing novel new DNA treatment.

[JaneyVee]

Danish scientists believe they may have a cure for HIV "within months."

Researchers at Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark are testing a new technique that involves flushing the virus from so-called reservoirs in human DNA.

The virus is then destroyed naturally by the body's immune system, The London Telegraph reported.

They are expecting results to show that "finding a mass-distributable and affordable cure to HIV is possible".

DAMN SOCIALIZED MEDICINE!

1. “I dunno how much AIDS scares y'all, but I got a theory:

the day they come out with a cure for AIDS, a guaranteed one-shot cure, on that day there's gonna be fucking in the streets, man.” ~Bill Hicks


Damned socialized medicine, indeed! How dare they get a cure in ahead of the Greatest Healthcare System On Earth™!

2. And of course it's not happening here,

thanks to fucking repukes and their refusal to fund scientific and medical research.

3. If I had a dollar for every time some news story came out about a cure for some terrible disease, I

would be a rich man, unfortunately most of the time the story was never realized

4. Too late for many of my friends, but there are some still who could use this.

Too good to be true? Maybe, but I sure hope it isn't!

[Warren DeMontague]

5. Good news.

Let's hope it works!

[sakabatou]

6. And when it's out, it's either going to cost a shit-load of money

Or it's going to be given free.

[awoke_in_2003]

8. probably both...

shit load of money in the US, cheap elsewhere.

7. It will be affordable everywhere except the U.S.

where some horrible pharmaceutical company will get exclusive rights and sell it for a king's ransom.

But WAY TO GO Denmark and the rest of the civilized world!!

[Hekate]

9. Absolutely hoping for this research to find its full potential
