That's the ugly part about these rt-DNA viruses. They embed into your own DNA, causing issues for life.
If so, if a treated patient spreads the virus, will that new patient carry an innoculated virus? Or will they suffer a standard infection?
I'd love to see more work done towards other incurable viruses like HSV (no vaccine) and HPV (limited vaccine)
So in other words: a very minor result.
19% is not a lot.
And the term "functionally cured" when they still have the virus, is not a cure, by definition. I get that for many this may be an improvement, but my gripe is with the wording here. This is inflation of feel-goodness.
This will enable it to be supplied at a non-exploitative price to Africa and Asia.
