An important development on HIV cure

An important development on HIV cure




HIV is one of those viruses that can make you lose your life. There was no cure for this virus in past but now there is a development on this front. Scientists have invented a vaccine and test that on monkeys. Firs the monkeys are injected with SIV "Simian Immunodeficiency Virus” and then use the vaccine to cure them. Scientists have picked up sixteen monkeys for injecting the virus; nine of them are fully cured with the help of vaccine. At start it is thought that if this vaccine do not works then all the monkeys will be dead in two years but they all survived.
This SIV virus is about 100 percent stronger than the HIV virus. So there are good chances that this vaccine will cure the HIV virus too. It is also seen that while doing the intercourse there are no complications and the monkeys are perfectly normal in their behavior. The scientist says that this is a very important development and in coming days the chances of saving people suffering from HIV will increase. Still it is early to use the word eradicate virus but in monkeys it is seen that there are no virus left in their bodies.
