Summary
In my current event this week i read that small protein changes may have a major effect on natural hiv control. They found out that judt a handdful of nucleotids make the difference between those who can stay healthy with hiv and those who cant. Earlier studies showed that certain genes involved with the hla system were imprtant for hiv control. It has been known for about 2 decades about one in 300 individuals infected with hiv are able to supress viral reproductions with thier immune systems. This brings us a step closer to finding the cure for hiv.
Opinion
I think that this is very good because there are some many people getting infected with aids and hiv now a days. What young people dont understand is that condoms don't protect you from everything. I think scientist looking for the cure for hiv are doing a great work. The more little steps we take we will eventually find the complete cure.
