Someone needs to ask Mr. Crowley if he heard that Dr. Nobuto Yamamoto, with the help of a partial grant (#AI-32140) from the United States Public Health Serivce (USPHS), found that he could cure an early HIV infection in young healthy recently infected Japanese patients by simply supplementing their production of a natural glyco-protein (GcMAF) destroyed by HIV, about nine years ago. If he is unaware of it, he should tender his resignation.
WOW--Talk about soft-ball questions? Will ANYONE please coax out at least ONE salient detail of how this strategy will be implemented? PLEASE!!
The only thing missing in the National Piece of Paper is a line item for a Cure for AIDS with zeal,passion and resources. However that would be asking to much form government for as one PWA first thoughts when ask about a cure "What would Pharma do if a cure was unveiled?" or as one young PWA stated, once a person has AIDS they always have AIDS." I wonder where they learned these values? Yes this National Paper for AIDS left out a search for a Cure for AIDS for a reason.
would like to know why is it that why then have they cut adap in most states to only cover hiv meds and the ones to keep down infections. Or the fact that somepoeple are dieing before they even get on adap due to a waiting list.I think that is vry unfair to all of us.And with ssd are turning down people that are n longer about to work due to the ide effects of hiv and the meds.
I hope that they don't take current disability persons out of disability and make them go down to 50 t-cells to reenter the SSD. That would kill most of us that had former infections thatwould come back at that level.Now it is 200 T-cells which every DR knows that infections start even higher than that even. So please don't kill us.
Nice piece! However in the question about funding increases, Crowley is speaking about the Affordable Care Act (health care reform), not the Ryan White CARE Act, which he mentions in the preceding sentence. Small but important error!

AIDS is not the only cure project that has been sweep under the carpet without verification. Cancer funding is about 900 billion a year and many have been ran out of the country to suggest a cure. If the President will fast track to verify both Cancer and AIDS cures in the pipe line and if they are true, the saving would fix the buget. Many Complimentry and Alternative votes would lock him in for 2012, just for the courage and effort. Sadly, is thier one person with honor in our government?
