And now for some positive news...
German scientists have developed an enzyme that will cut the DNA from the HIV virus out of human cells. It's not ready to be used in any sort of drug yet, but it is a good start. It's the first major step toward a real cure.
A bill is now going through Congress which would make it a crime to spoof CallerID. Hopefully it won't have any sort of loophole in it that allows the caller to block the information instead of spoofing it.
The enzyme trick is pretty nifty! There are several things that kind of treatment could work on once perfected. But even if it isn't ever perfected it could still make a fantastic treatment in combination with the standard drugs.
