No shit. http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/02/11/health.hiv.stemcell/index.html?eref=rss_latest Long story short, stem cell transplant that introduces a natural resistance to the HIV virus was successfully transplanted, and the dude has no more HIV two years later.
either you die from aids or have a 1/3 chance of having your life cut short during the transplant. I would chance it
If it can get rid of the HIV before it trashes your immune system this would be completely fantastic news! (At least till HIV evolves around it)
