Scientists Disarm AIDS Virus’ Attack on Immune System - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Kybalt;32485555]wow dude holy shit. you are wrong in so many ways. like that this is different from other ones in method. or that the other ones also have to go through years of clinical and thus won't be heard from for that time period. many other reasons that i don't think you're worth typing out. please stop acting condescending like you can tell people what to do, because you can't. thank you.[/QUOTE] Watch this thread disappear in a week or so and then tell me that again. Cheers

[QUOTE=MrEndangered;32480656]Yeah man we never cured Smallpox or vaccinated TB right? Man, I wish [I]Smallpox[/I] would be cured. Too bad all cures are being repressed by The Man or are doomed to failure.[/QUOTE] And yet we can't cure the common cold.

[QUOTE=Mindtwistah;32488494]I don't get all this talk about time travel being proven. Can someone link me to the article? I must've missed it :([/QUOTE] It hasn't been. CERN produced some data that showed neutrinos travelling marginally faster than the speed of light (0.0025% faster, or faster by 60 nanoseconds). It's very possible it was the result of a miscalculation somewhere and CERN is waiting to do further independent studies. Nothing has been proven. AIDS isn't fixed either, this study is still in a state of infancy. So basically that whole post was largely misleading. I'm sorry to disappoint.

[QUOTE=Baboo00;32480222]Calling it right now: If somebody ever makes a successful aids vaccine, the gop will say "BAN IT! IT LETS OUR CHILDREN HAVE CONSEQUENCE-FREE GAY SEX!!1!"[/QUOTE] wow i'm surprised people were actually stupid enough to agree with this post i hate the GOP too but holy fucking shit you guys take unadulterated completely illogical bias and hatred to a whole new level

[QUOTE=carcarcargo;32488780]And yet we can't cure the common cold.[/QUOTE] It mutates like there's no tomorrow, making it hard to cure or prevent (except proper hygiene). Even cancer seems slow at mutating, compared to the common cold.

[QUOTE=Roof;32479494]We already cured cancer about 20 times.[/QUOTE]Cancer can't really be cured by one vaccine. It is a broad umbrella term for many many different illnesses sharing a few common characteristics. For example, leukaemia is very much different from lung cancer

Well this is awesome! P.S Yogurt good news! You can stay with you can leave your cheating girlfriend, she'll be cured soon :v:

[QUOTE=Ultra Violence;32488341]Any word on the cost of this treatment yet? I can't imagine something as specialized as removing cholesterol membranes from specific cells is going to be cheap. The cost of treatment could potentially put the vaccine at a stand-still.[/QUOTE] Why would removing the cholesterol envelopes of HIV viruses instead of human cells mean it would be more expensive? Cost of drugs would be determined by how much the drug development process cost, the cost to manufacture and market and the size of the market.

Oh hey it's that miraculous news regarding the cure for AIDS/cancer/whatever from each week!

Hey guys where has this thread gone? It's obviously the real deal this time.

[QUOTE=EzioAuditore;32484990]Can we start banning people for these sort of threads. This is the same shit that'll happen everytime: 1. New thread reveals news of drug or plan that stop AIDS or any other virus. 2. Other posters are happy. 3. Day or so later thread disappears and is never heard of again. 4. Week or so later another thread appears with exactly the same reason. 5. Cycle repeats.[/QUOTE] Can we start banning people who have video game characters name as a username?

[QUOTE=EzioAuditore;32534373]Hey guys where has this thread gone? It's obviously the real deal this time.[/QUOTE] Well further research and clinical trials take time (years) so it may be awhile before we get any new information. It's not like a cure to anything is ready to go. This is far from any marketable material; more like a proof of concept.

[QUOTE=Hullu V3;32534532]Can we start banning people who have video game characters name as a username?[/QUOTE] There's a difference between a username and the same threads that keep appearing all the time. Now be quiet.

[QUOTE=EzioAuditore;32538775]There's a difference between a username and the same threads that keep appearing all the time. Now be quiet.[/QUOTE] Except you said that this was bollocks when it obviously isn't

It went back a page or two and I brought it back. So yes it is bollocks.

So now we have the modified HIV that cures/significantly weakens cancer and a likely cure/vaccine for AIDS. Science, you never cease to amaze.
