Amazing! Two Men HIV Free After Adult Stem Cell Bone Marrow Transplants

Two HIV-positive men were found to be free of detection following adult stem cell bone marrow transplants.
Eight months after the transplant doctors say they could not find HIV in either of the two Boston patients.

Note: These are adult stem cells and not embryonic stem cells.
Life News reported:

Adult stem cells are responsible for another incredible scientific breakthrough.

On Thursday at the AIDS 2012 Conference in Washington, DC, researchers unveiled that two HIV-positive men have been found to be HIV-free following bone marrow transplants. Researchers believe giving bone marrow transplants, which by nature involve the use of adult stem cells, to patients undergoing anti-retroviral therapy could potentially cure the AIDS-causing virus.

“We expected HIV to vanish from the patients’ plasma, but it is surprising that we can’t find any traces of HIV in their cells,” said Dr. Timothy Henrich, one of the researchers studying the two men. “It suggests that under the cover of anti-retroviral therapy, the cells that repopulated the patient’s immune system appear to be protected from becoming re-infected with HIV.”

Only time will tell if the two men have been permanently cured of the virus. “Studies over time including biopsies of lymphatic tissue would be required,” said Dr. Michael Saag, an infectious disease expert from University of Alabama at Birmingham.

The breakthrough bears similarities to the case of Timothy Ray Brown, known as “the Berlin patient,” who says he continues to be cured of HIV after receiving a transplant of cells found to have a genetic mutations making them HIV-resistant.

I suspect this “breakthrough” will be as real as the last cold fusion breakthrough was.

I do hope I’m wrong, but scientists are as fallibly human as the rest of us, they crave media attention. For scientists, though, the attention does have strings attached: potentially increased funding.

but but…killing babies and using their cells was suppose to do the trick!!!!!

Why did they release this info?? It’s going to destroy the baby killing industry and put our BIG FAT LIE to shame?////
…………………………………………

They knew this all along but killing babies and using their “parts” fit so well with their death agenda… alas…

Oh but we HAVE to have the more expensive EMBRYONIC stem cells. I know that the only thing that they have helped so far is for cloning, but..but…but…no, no, no, it has NOTHING to do with teh fact that adult stem cells are not patentable and therefore are not worth BILLIONS of dollars to the abortion industry.

Nothing to do with that, despite the fact that teh rest of the world has been using adult stems cells successfully while our FDA has been blocking them so the abortion industry won’t lose their grant money.

Nothing at all. Purely coincidental.

Furry Guy, this breakthrough has been of longstanding and well documented over the rest of hte world. It’s just our billionaire making abortion industry that has been sitting on the board that permits and decides who gets grants…yes you heard me right. Planned Parenthood has a seat on the government committee that decides if Planned Parenthood gets money.

The late Chicago mayor Daley can be heard rolling in his grave laughing.

Good news.

Unfortunately the guys will go back to doing the same things that got them HIV in the first place.

We need to keep producing the minds that develop these skills. Education is everything in the world of Science.

Let’s use taxpayers’ money to pay for the cure for every promiscuous sodomite and intravenous drug user in America.

Actually, I’m probably anticipating another Obama vote-buying scheme.

I have been trying since 1976 to get someone, anyone (and this includes 2 extensive letters to Queen Oprah), to listen to me on this:
Start a huge nation-wide campaign to ask pregnant women to donate their placenta for serum gamma gobulin (used for rabies shots), the umbilical cords for heart bypasses (much stronger than the saphenous veins currently used, it eliminates the second surgical site on the patient’s leg, and no valves interiorly as in the veins), and we could harvest the stem cells contained in the umbilical cords for research and use. These are the closest we can have to embryonic stem cells without destroying an embryo. I wish someone would listen.
Just sayin’

This is not good news, as now the fags will ressurect their bath houses and return to the behavior that got them AIDS in the first place. Just like women who don’t worry about pregnancy because they can turn to medicine and abort, the fags will turn to medicine and not curb their behavior. Not only that, but who is paying for the million dollar surgery??? Will the gay facists push this to be covered by insurance?
