The results presented at a meeting of the International AIDS Society in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia may yield growing hope that the virus could someday be cured, not just kept in check with a cocktail of medicines as it is now.
Giving an update in an eagerly followed trial, researchers said an HIV-positive infant in Mississippi, United States, who was put on a course of antiretroviral drugs within a few days of birth had remained free of the AIDS virus 15 months after treatment was stopped.
In Boston, United States, two HIV-positive men who were given bone-marrow transplants for cancer also had no detectable virus 15 weeks and seven weeks respectively after stopping AIDS drugs, a separate team reported.
Both research projects are at an early stage and should not be taken as a sign that a cure for the human HIV is around the corner, researchers cautioned.
Even so, they said it strengthens the motivation for pursuing the once-unthinkable goal of eradicating HIV or repressing it without daily drugs – a condition referred to as a "functional cure" or "functional remission".
Indeed, an international non-profit organisation dedicated to the support of AIDS research, HIV prevention and treatment education has reported a breakthrough in the case of two HIV-positive patients who show no trace of virus following stem-cell transplants.
Dr. Timothy Henrich of Harvard Medical School, United States yesterday reported that a 25 year-old amfAR-funded leadership research in the fight against AIDS has at last produced evidence of total cure.
A statement by the organisation indicated that it is closing in on a total cure for AIDS globally.
Henrich's patients had been on long-term antiretroviral therapy for HIV when they developed lymphoma. To treat the cancer, the patients underwent stem-cell transplants. Since the transplants, Henrich has been unable to find any evidence of HIV infection.
With support from a special amfAR grant made possible by the Bucks County Friends of amfAR and the Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation, Henrich conducted a clinical study in which his research team withdrew the patients' antiretroviral therapy and performed several sophisticated tests looking for signs of viral rebound in blood and other tissues. One patient has been off treatment with no detectable virus for approximately 15 weeks and the second patient for seven weeks, but it is too soon to draw any definitive long-term conclusions.
The first person to be cured of HIV, Timothy Brown ("the Berlin patient"), also underwent a stem-cell transplant to treat his leukemia. These new cases differ significantly, however, in that the stem-cell donors lacked the genetic mutation (CCR5 delta32) that renders a person virtually resistant to HIV infection.
The statement posited that these findings provide important new information that might well alter the current thinking about HIV and gene therapy. It stated that stem-cell transplantation cannot be used on a broad scale to treat people with HIV because of its costs and complexity, but was optimistic that the two recorded cases could lead the team of researchers to new ways of treating- and ultimately even eradicating HIV.
An estimated 34 million people are infected with HIV worldwide, and about 1.8 million die each year.
The virus was first identified in 1981, and until the advent of anti-retroviral was essentially a death sentence, progressively destroying the immune system until the patient succumbed to pneumonia or another opportunistic disease.

Believe it or not this is a true life experience.
ReplyDeleteThis is not design to convince you but it’s just a personal health experience it depends on how you take it or believe it.
in June 15 2009 I was tested positive to HIV, after which I went for a medical test and confirmatory test, I was downcast with no hope due to the much pronounced and campaign that it has no known cure until date, I wanted to go for the ANTIRETROVIRAL DRUG but I was told that the Viral Load would have gotten to a specific number before I can take the ART and more so I read about the devastating side effects of ARV on Liver, kidney heart, brain and other major organ of the body, so I decided not to take it, I wanted to commit suicide but I was encouraged by a friend that it is not a death sentence and can be maintained. I had just body itching, weakness from my inside and frequent stooling, I decided to make research on it. I searched through the internet, read books, magazines, both Orthodox and Natural, so in July I was searching through the internet I saw how a spell caster helped someone in curing his HIV virus, I saw many testimonies it was the same man who is doing this miracle works, (DR. ABEGBE) quickly I emailed him, he gave me some items to buy, I couldn’t find the items I sent him the money, after buying the item, 45 minutes later he told me that he had finished casting the spell that I should go for medical check up, I couldn't believe my eyes when I went for a test I BECAME NEGATIVE TO HIV apart from that I do not have any symptoms again I am perfectly okay I have done the test about 6 times now and confirmatory test as well and it still says NEGATIVE. You can contact him on DR.ABEGBESPELLHOME@HOTMAIL.COM or call. +2348142729958

ReplyDeleteBeen a HIV positive is just like been through hell but EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. So amazing and i want to testify of the good work done by GREAT DR a very strong and powerful spell caster. GREAT DR has proved science and scientists wrong for believing and thinking that there is no cure for HIV AIDS but to be sincere this GREAT MAN is so real and powerful. I never thought that this spell will work but this GREAT MAN has proved it to me and it has worked and still working perfectly. My Name is Henry west and i was diagnosed of the deadly disease called HIV AIDS in 2011 and i thought that is the end and there will be no hope. Speaking to anyone was always a problem because i was so worried and always in the state of unrest in fact i thought it was over until one blessed day when i was searching for help here on the internet, i came across a testimony about GREAT DR on how he helped a lady who was HIV positive. At first i thought it was all a lie but i decided to give it a try since there was no option and, when i contacted this MAN he laughed and told me that, that is too small for him to handle but i was still in doubt, and he gave me a form to fill which I did, then he called me and told me that his gods required some items in which he will use in casting a curing spell on me and he told me that it will cost only $500, I sent him the money because I could not find the items. He bought the items and prepared a cure for me, and instructed me on what to do and i OBEYED him completely as he told me. Then he sent a parcel to me through the courier delivery service. I paid for the courier service, I got my parcel, it was a holy water and a pure holy oil as described by GREAT DR. I took the holy water and the holy oil and after taking it, he told me to go for check up but I was still in doubt and was so afraid to go for the test but i took a bold step and believed that it is well, and i believed all what he has done and all that he has told me. So i went to the hospital for the test it was so amazing, awesome and exciting what seems to be impossible became possible, the VIRUS disappeared completely from my system and I was tested HIV negative. Quickly I called him and told him what happened he congratulated me and today i am a happy man again the way things use to be. Don't you think that this testimony is worth sharing? I promise to tell the world about him and i will keep sharing this testimony till the end because many people has died of AIDS and i want many people who believed that it is over to know that EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE AND I WANT THEM TO GET HELP FROM THIS SPELL CASTER by contacting him on his email at dr.skhivhomefcure@gmail.com for your solution now.
