Re: Omg! They cured the HIVy!

This, so much.

I'd love to be excited and I'd love a cure for HIV to be found even more, but this just seems like a very slim chance of a cure for a small group of those affected.

Not to mention that even if this turns out to be an actual cure for newborns, there will still be too many HIV-positive newborns who won't have the chance to get the therapy, just the way therapies for reducing the mother-to-child transmission are not available for all that need them. :/

Absolutely. And the way they delivered this particular therapy means that it's essentially impossible to extend it to a cure for adults.

That's not to say it's not still a major breakthrough and a really good thing, especially for that one kid! but we need to like... be realistic about what actually went down.
