GaGaAst 13,124 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 A man from London has become the second person in the world to be cured of HIV, doctors say. Adam Castillejo is still free of the virus more than 30 months after stopping anti-retroviral therapy. He was not cured by the HIV drugs, however, but by a stem-cell treatment he received for a cancer he also had, the Lancet HIV journal reports. The donors of those stem cells have an uncommon gene that gives them, and now Mr Castillejo, protection against HIV. In 2011, Timothy Brown, the "Berlin Patient" became the first person reported as cured of HIV, three and half years after having similar treatment. HIV infections among gay and bi men fall 71% in UK Read full at: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.bbc.com/news/health-51804454&ved=0ahUKEwiw45ekpZDoAhXl8HMBHUJVDCQQxfQBCCYwAA&usg=AOvVaw1uzszRfe3wZEntrnZ1CluL Good days coming for LGBT community and other communities of the world Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arturo 40,746 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 That’s great but kinda sucks how you need to have cancer and HIV to cure it. Also you should change the title to “cured” of HIV. Millions are being treated daily but only 2 have been cured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromatic Lover 868 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 This is great news. However, not to be a pessimist or anything but this makes me even more scared to have sex given that when a vaccine does become avaliable, people would start being sooooooo irresponsible when it comes to sex. There's only so much precautions someone like me can take. I don't know if i make any sense. Or I'm just a little too paranoid or what. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's far better than not having a cure. We all especially gays need to ensure that we are practicing safe gaysex. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know if you guys have heard of PreP, but people are already being irresponsible, i would rather say, enjoying sex than irresponsible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
