Yeah, the title is misleading, but still very interesting.

If this turns out to be accurate (and after 2 years it seems to be heading that way) it is a truly amazing (and lucky) thing, and I hope it leads to a better understanding of the genetic resistance!

That is all well and good, but to have a proper cure would require that they can grow the marrow cells in vitro (cause otherwise you would have very very few donors), and you might need multiple different cell lines for compatibility with the immune system.

 

On that note, if your transplant is the cells that make immune cells, and they are incompatible with you, does that mean that you will be eaten by your immune system?

nothing new. Have you heard about MMS (miracle mineral solution)? It is believed to HIV and Aids in 100% of cases

Probably magnetic rings dissolved in the oil from a snake.

[Sedit]

Years ago i hear talk on discovery of 5 hookers from africa that didnt have aids does any one know what every came about from the study of these women

 

Last i knew it was found that they all came from a genetic line with super huge agressive white blood cells but that is the last i heard.

There immune system ate the HIV virus Like the common cold for christ sake.

 

Thats evolution in the works folks
