Mr Q Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 On the heels of World AIDS Day comes a stunning medical breakthrough: Doctors believe an HIV-positive man who underwent a stem cell transplant has been cured as a result of the procedure. Timothy Ray Brown, also known as the "Berlin Patient," received the transplant in 2007 as part of a lengthy treatment course for leukemia. His doctors recently published a report in the journal Blood affirming that the results of extensive testing "strongly suggest that cure of HIV infection has been achieved." Brown's case paves a path for constructing a permanent cure for HIV through genetically-engineered stem cells. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/12/14/hiv-cure-berlin-patient_n_796521.html Don't know much about stem cell research, but isn't there a big argument against it?
