There are two main strains of the HIV retrovirus. HIV-1 is predominently found here in the U.S. The HIV retrovirus is what is known as a "sloppy copier." It tends to evolve as conditions in the human body change. This is why we have seen treatment resistant versions of the virus occur. Some individuals will be treatment "naive," meaning any of the four major classes of medications will work on the virus, others are not and therefore any one (or more) of these medications will not work. This presents a problem for researchers trying to formulate a vaccine for the HIV retrovirus. One may work for one individual may not work for another.

HIV, which causes AIDS, is a virus. There has never been a cure for any virus, not even the common cold. (But a cold won't kill ya.) The best hope when it comes to AIDS is prevention. People now-a-days can live a long time with HIV with medication and a healthy life style. Don't be afraid of getting HIV unless you shoot up drugs with used needles, or have unprotected sex. No glove, no love til you're in a committed relationship with a trustworthy person. HIV will be around until we stop spreading it.

There is no money in the cure. Use condoms and have a steady partner tested as well as yourself. Life is rarely peaceful. That is the greatness of it.

i don't know but i hope soon. i know if u look it up u could donate money to the cause and help speed up the process. that is what i am trying to do.
