YEAH! LET'S KICK HIV'S ASS

[hitcan79]

The medicine hold the "thumb" open, Why can't they figure out how to Chop that god damn thumb OFF

[Dusty696969]

Damn virus RNA.

[Dusty696969]

@XuchiwaX SO it just stops the virus RNA from being spliced into our DNA thus causing are own bodies to recreate the virus. Sneaky little things aren't they.

[Dusty696969]

@Dusty696969 Never mind I miss understood. I get it

[Dusty696969]

@XuchiwaX Also then wouldn't anti transcriptor inhibitors stop skin cell or any kind of cell that is needed to recreate in our bodies stopped in there tracks?

[Dusty696969]

@XuchiwaX So what you are saying is anti replicating drugs don't work on retrovirus? So there not replicating they reverse transcript the DNA to create more virus?? But isn't there ain't transcriptase inhibitors?

[XuchiwaX]

@Dusty696969 It's not an anti replicating drug ! just a drug who stop the conversion of the virus' RNA to virus'DNA.

[XuchiwaX]

@vcxshgfd You don"t remember why reverse transcriptase is important ? It's said in the video. The virus needs it to convert its RNA to DNA and its DNA is include in the DNA of OUR cells, and when our cells are replicating, we are replicating the DNA of the virus by the same way. A virus can't live without an other cell, it can't replicate its cells by itself.

[XuchiwaX]

@Dusty696969 And now, I just saw the video, don't have all understand but I think, I said the same things :/

[XuchiwaX]

@Dusty696969 And then, when we replicate our cells, we also replicate our DNA to create new cells and because of HIV's DNA include in our cells' DNA, we replicate the DNA of the virus :/The reverse transcriptors inhibiting are just here to prevent the virus 'RNA conversion to DNA, because if it doesn't convert, it's not include in OUR DNA and can't be spending in our body. This reverse transcriptase inhibitor doesn't stop the replication of our cells. Hope you understood, sorry for my english :)
