genertic based therapy is the future of medicicne and the answer solution to HIV management is going to be found within the realms of gene modulation and stem cell therapy.This is but a start, but finally a course in the right direction. current ARV meds are jsut toxic non curative money making ''racket'' drugs for the greedy manufactureres,Come on scientists, how about COLLABORATING, for one SHARING your work and reagants and findings without selfishly guarding your breakthroughs in search of n
I wouldnt het too shook up about this. The researchers have only come up with an idea. I might like to fly to the Hawaii with my jet pack on my back, but wishing doesnt make it so.
You've got to be f***ing kidding me. You people want us to take some experimental genetic therapy so that the handful of pozzies who willfully infect others will be less likely to do so? What are you going to do, force everyone who tests positive to start this therapy immediately? Unless thats your plan, you're not going to stop the "superspreaders". Why can't these a$$holes stop thinking of ways to paint us as toxic monsters and start working on a damn cure? Or fund some treatment. NOW!
This is really incredible news. And we need to be thankful for this kind of progress...but...dear,lord,forgive me for sounding selfish. We need to focus more on "cure". Like R.Hofman and T.Horn presented to us,"cure" is what we need to find. I just hope i'm not being selfish or unrealistic. And i'm sorry if i am.

I don't understand why the immune system would try to expel the TIPs. Wouldn't the immune system recognize the TIPs as a foreign pathogen? How could they just lie dormant until the HIV virus is introduced?
