Doctors are considering using a new technology for genetically modifying AIDS patients' own cells to be resistant to HIV. As this ScienCentral News video explains, they're modeling the idea after rare individuals who are naturally immune to the AIDS virus. http://www.sciencentral.com/video/

  • good work here

  • preventative methods are at least a step forward. magic johnoson might know the next steps after prevention.

  • Just a warning to be wary of a user named Reggieworth. He also uses other accounts like RoadrageHateGroup, Padraa and so on. This person is known to hang out with hackers, racists, stalkers and other less desirable people on Youtube. He befriends people by siding with their views to gain their trust. He will also spam prepared posts rambling on about fake hate groups which he thinks exists. He has been banned by Youtube multiple times

    Be careful when interacting with him. Do so at your own risk

  • @tibg95 and of course dis-info agents are still at work too.

  • @vengencefrom1979 of course. hiv/aids research is still ongoing.

  • @tibg95 oh you can bet on more research being done. especially after the bone marrow transplant cured a guy of HIV (AIDS) just a couple of years ago.

  • @vengencefrom1979 lol that genetic key is the rna... the rna is what mutates alot. and this video came out in 2008, do proper research and youll know that from this we only learned that certain people are immune to certain strands of hiv.

  • @tibg95 the theory here is that all HIV versions all use the same genetic 'key' to invade T-cells. shut it down and you shut down the virus.

  • this is not gona work.... hiv mutates ALOT... and for this reason we have never been able to find a cure. Sure they might make people immune to this type of hiv but there are many many more types of hiv that can still enter the cells. Yes there are many types of hiv that have been created due to mutations in the HIV dupilcation process...

    like so people can know...
