SAN FRANCISCO (CBS 5) — A 45-year-old man now living in the Bay Area may be the first person ever cured of the deadly disease AIDS, the result of the discovery of an apparent HIV immunity gene.

[Canyonero]

Albino bone marrow was the cure

[soonerinabilene]

Magic Johnson beat it the day after he tested positive, didnt he?

[StoopTroup]

If you believe he's cured....

Would you want a blood transfusion from him?

[GKeeper316]

i could have sworn there was a guy in england whose immune system was actually able to fight it off.

but hey, if this guy helps bring about the end the the black plague of the modern era, a huge thank you is in order to all those involved in finding this gene.

[sanantoniosooner]

It's not just black people that get it.

[Peach Fuzz]

Actually there was another cured person I think in 07 involving a Brazilian man and a bone marrow transplant. 2nd I've heard of, good news for people.

[StoopTroup]

When you say cure....I think you mean they saved his life.

The cure is when nobody on Earth is infected.

[Peach Fuzz]

But you can be cured so that didn't get us anywhere...

[mgsooner]

Only the poor and uninsured die of AIDS now anyway. And who gives a sh*t about those people?

[yermom]

mgsooner hates black people.

[Peach Fuzz]

Heard the average life expectancy for a new HIV patient is 32 years... just 15-20 years ago it was <5

magic sure has a tough immune system... being diagnosed in 1990 and all...

[MeMyself&Me]

"Who gives a sh*t"? I thought the "hope for change, change for hope" guy fixed that! :confused:

everyone knows the cure for AIDS is money

Reminds me of that episode of South Park with Magic Johnson.

I actually remember reading about this guy back in 2009. Crazy.

[jkjsooner]

They just released a study that showed that an HIV positive person is dramatically less contagious if taking anti-retroviral drugs. This should lead to people beginning this regiment long before they normally would.

Because this could be used as a method to reverse the spread of the disease, I wonder if the international community wouldn't be best served by ponying up the money to use this as a tactic to slowly weed out the disease. (In the long run this would be the most cost effective solution.)

The key is to identify those with the disease which is tricky. But, if we could and start them on medications early (which reduces the probability of transmission by orders of magnitude) we could begin an exponential decline in new cases instead of an exponential growth.

[yermom]

it would help if some of the people in Africa weren't ****ing savages

[SoonerNate]

I've known a cure for years. Don't let another man put it in your rear end and you'll be straight. (no pun intended)

[yermom]

your enlightening view on the subject is quite refreshing

[SoonerNate]

Hey, thanks man

[StoopTroup]

I think butt secs will be on the rise now....lol

Have fun Nate.

[SoonerNate]

Don't knock it till ya try it

[StoopTroup]

[GKeeper316]

to be accurate, its about 180k cash injected directly into the bloodstream.

Is that Gold Bullion or paper?

[SoonerNate]

The rapture is coming this Saturday and all the but sects types will be left behind.

That's why I asked you to quit hitting on me. :D

Fags and blacks are given AIDS as payback for not voting Republican.

Why do you think RLIMC keeps doing it then? Nevermind...I think I see the answer....lol

[SoonerNate]

I wonder how many Tea Party types take Medicare.

n/m they all make over 250K.

[2121Sooner]

You know what the first symptoms of AIDS is?



A constant pounding in the a$$

[Sooner_Tuf]

Magic Johnson beat it the day after he tested positive, didnt he?

I don't know but it is evident he wasn't beating it before.

So more of a pitcher than a catcher?



Either way you can still get teh AIDS

[Wishboned]

Magic Johnson beat it the day after he tested positive, didnt he?

No, but he did have a triple double against it.
