[quote=Anonymous]Just wanting to reiterate that there is no cure, only treatment. Some strains of HIV are more virulent and result in a much more rapid onset of AIDS (eg Philippe Padieu). Some are less virulent and with antiretroviral treatment keep patients at a healthier state at length. Again, this is not to be confused with a cure and not to be confused as not being infectious. Huge spectrum: Some patients also have a genetic mutation that results in HIV resistance while some patients have comorbidities that result in infections causing death. Some people have health insurance or are in a developed country with access to care and some are not. Patients in developing countries are still not doing well with regard to education and access to care. The least surprising patients who are doing well are those with celebrity, $ and access to education/care.[/quote]
