HIV curable?


The treatment kills 30% but apparently a bone marrow transplant from a person with a genetic mutation that causes immunity to most strains of HIV has cured at least one person.


The accidental discovery has been replicated in the lab.

There are also some Chinese women with a different (?) genetic mutation that prevents AIDS.
