Have doctors found a cure for HIV? Since 1981 the AIDS epidemic has killed around 35 million people. Up until now HIV antiretroviral drugs have been the only way to control the disease. But they create their own problems as antiretrovirals can cost around $10,000 a year.

I'm diagnosed as HIV Positive recently. I always ask myself " What's the point of living if you are sick, stigmatized and criticized. Watching this kind of breakthrough news gives me hope not to give up on life. I'm rooting for all scientist finding a way to cure this devastating disease.

While these scientists and workers are saving human lives, their pay are overwhelmingly underpaid.

Agree 100 percent. Nice video. I only have 1 question why can't the body detect Hiv during the early phase or upon entry? I have a theory which could be extremely wrong- because Hiv is so unique- the body of course can detect Hiv. However during early immune response Hiv can easily elude this by giving up its receptor sites( gp 120). The immune system would stop attacking the virus because it only attacks virus with antennas or gp 120. In the absence of gp 120 it would shut down. Then Hiv would grow back its gp 120 if threatened again it would give it up again. The process would go on and on until it reaches its target tcell. By then it's check mate.anyway it's just a theory which is probably wrong anyway. I just wish people with Hiv aids will be healed soonest.
