I'm sure most of the forum members have seen the latest good news story doing the rounds. I feel quite hopeful that this might be the big news story developing.
We have to have hope even if it’s slim hope. I’ve enclosed a brief on the story if you haven’t caught up with it yet.
Good health to all

Researchers may finally be on track to get at the HIV that hides inside cells and keeps the infection going; if so, they could perhaps eradicate the virus from the body entirely, according to an article published in the July issue of Retrovirology. The latest research expands on the mixed results of earlier studies of valproic acid (Depakote), an epilepsy treatment that demonstrated potential as a method of purging HIV from its cellular hiding places.

Yes, I am also very hopeful about this. I just pray that it does not turn out like the other times when we've had hopes crushed when the scientists rushed to predict an outcome just to later tell us that its not so......
Hope dies last

I really hope study may open new avenues to the development of weapons able to eliminate the HIV-infected cells from the body", Such weapons, in combination with antiretro viral therapies, could hopefully allow people living with HIV/AIDS to get rid of the virus and return to a normal life.
