    But now we might just be able to cure HIV.

    First, I agree with the spirit of what you’re referring to. However, I want to point out we have a fully working cure HIV, its just not reasonable to use on most people. 7 people have been fully cured of HIV with this treatment..

    A cure that can be used at scale is I know what you’re talking about. I’m hopeful we’ll have that soon for the world. Meanwhile we have pretty darn good medicine these days to prevent HIV transmission as well as treat those with HIV to live a full life.
