World Aids Day

HIV, or Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is a virus that attacks the immune system, leading to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) if left untreated. Since the virus was first identified in the early 1980s, scientists have been working tirelessly to find a cure for HIV. While there have been significant advancements in the treatment of HIV, there is still no cure.

However, recent scientific breakthroughs have given hope to the possibility of a revolutionary cure for HIV. One of the most promising approaches involves using gene editing technology to eliminate the virus from infected cells.

This technique, known as CRISPR-Cas9, allows scientists to precisely target and remove specific genes from DNA. In the case of HIV, the idea is to use CRISPR-Cas9 to remove the viral DNA from the infected cells, effectively curing the patient of the disease.

I was really hoping that my viral load count would’ve come back in time for my doctors appointment this morning, but the results weren’t in from the lab yet. The anxiety about that has been really cranked up kind of high the past several days.
