Default HIV/AIDS - What will happen? - 08-11-2005, 08:27 PM

Read the article.

You kind have to wonder, what will it be like when this virus is completely destroyed and cleaned from the human species? Or what will it be like when this virus could have mutated so many times that it's really unstoppable and becomes more deadly? [First one to bring up Demolition Man Mind Secks get -1]

That, and with as much as you know about the subject. When do you think (how many years) a cure will come?

It will never be cured because the US wastes all the money on wars and space exploration...

Not to mention the banning of stem cell research.....

Sometimes I wonder about the whole conspiracy theory that they will never release a cure because so much money is made from treatments for sickness.

there's already a cure anyways, dont contract it. it's preventable. anyways, if all the people who died from aids were still alive, we'd still be talking about the problem of overpopulation

aids is by no means controling the population. It is only responsable for a small number of deaths which is nowhere enar the amount of births.

HIV is the virus in "hibernation". AIDS is the virus in an active form.

I dont think they will 'cure' AIDS. They will prolly make it the next cold or flu. They will make enough medecines just enough to let you live with it. There is no money in cure, only in the treatment.

imwithstupid:

Or, they will release a cure for AIDS/HIV or whatever the fuck it's supposed to be, after they have infected people with a new super-dooper disease that you can catch simply by looking someone in the eye.
