Researchers, including a BYU scientist, believe they have found a new compound that could finally kill the HIV/AIDS virus, not just slow it down as current treatments do.

a very good point

however, the fact that it is one drug vs 25 leads me to believe that, even if it is an extremely expensive drug, it will still be cheaper than current treatment methods

it will be stopped by miles and miles of red tape from bullshit such as the government and watch groups.

I know, but this research seems promising.

Only time will tell, that`s sure.

nah man, the government is in league with the pharmaceutical companies.
how do you think prices stay up in the US?

an advance like this wouldn't get held up for long if the public got wind of it


the pharmaceutical companies have tremendous lobbying power, which is probably a good thing for the general health of the people

the only barrier i can see is the FDA really, and the only way they'll hold it up is if it's unsafe, in which case it shouldn't be administered anyway

what good is a drug that cures HIV but kills you? in that mindset, the bullet is a good cure for HIV as well

Man, I hate condoms. I can't use them, so unbelievably iritating. This would be awesome news. I mean, sure, hundreds of thousands lives saved, but also, we'll be able to have casual sex with no death threatening diseases!

Sorry for offtopic, do you guys get different sizes condoms where you live? Anything that isn't so restricting at least? I guess I'm just really sensitive or something. Or maybe I'm really really thick, who knows. Please help.

wow okay

that's it, this thread has reached the threshold for stupid posts

1) condoms are an effective method of preventing HIV

2) using condoms has other benefits besides preventing HIV, such as preventing the myriad of other STD's that are out there which you don't want to be getting, not to mention relatively effective at preventing pregnancy

3) if you don't know how to use condoms, learn, or get a regular partner that is clean so you wont have to worry about it

4) what the fuck guys, seriously.

you can also fit a regular condom around your forearm

so unless you are an elephant, the only thing that's thick is your skull

true, except that burning our retina's hurts like hell instead of giving lots of pleasure
and that the chance of fucking yourself up are 100% instead of like 1%(?)
but for the rest... yeah exactly the same

Great news btw, but I'm still a bit sceptic, let's see how it turns out.
