RV IN GB#1

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction. - Albert Einstein

"Two of the antibodies can attach to and neutralize 90 percent of the various mutations of the human immunodeficiency virus that causes AIDS, Nabel said."

This is very exciting and personally it makes me feel better about the medical community and medical researchers in general. For the past 20 years I have been of the opinion that researchers were no longer looking for cures for ANYTHING. As Chris Rock said "There's no money in the cure, the money is in the treatment."

If doctors can create an AIDS preventative vaccine, who knows, maybe they can create immune globulin to cure patients who are already infected.

I remember hearing about Majic Johnson, and having a panic attack! Where have I been, what have I done, could I "catch AIDS." Heck, I remember when it was called GRID. Those were scary times.

There is nothing that I would love to see more than the eradication of this disease (with the possible exception of the eradication of cancer.)
