This is great if it actually works and gets to the masses. In the article you posted, though......
An estimated 1.2 million people in the United States have HIV, for which there is no cure or vaccine, and 4,941 people in the U.S. die each year from AIDS, the disease caused by HIV, according to HIV.gov. Worldwide, there are 39.9 million people living with HIV, and 630,000 deaths from HIV-related illnesses each year, according to the World Health Organization. Standard treatment for HIV involves taking daily antiretroviral therapy that stops the virus from making new copies of itself and from spreading. Antiviral medicines must be taken long term, and they carry short- and long-term side effects, whereas a gene therapy would require as little as one dose.
Oh totally, im not saying that people arent suffering and there isnt access yet (and rfk pulling gene therapy research) but us isnt the only country so i hope the research is picked up else where. But there does appear to be a cure.
