Can HIV be cured with treatment? Know about this research done by doctors

There is good news for HIV AIDS patients. A team of doctors announced on Thursday that a 60-year-old German man will be completely free from HIV disease after a stem cell transplant. This man will be the seventh person in the world who has been cured of HIV.

Actually, next week the International AIDS Conference is going to be held in Munich. It is a big deal to achieve such success before that. The researcher working on this disease said that this is a big deal and at the same time it has given us hope that we can completely cure the patient of this disease. This HIV patient had both HIV and aggressive leukemia.

So for such people, cell transplant proves to be dangerous. But still we took the risk and transplanted it.' The German man asked not to be identified. He is being called the 'next Berlin patient'.

The original patient from Berlin was named Timothy Ray Brown. Timothy was declared HIV-free in 2008. He was the first person. But in the year 2020, Timothy died of cancer. Now after fully recovering from the disease, he underwent a bone marrow transplant for HIV in 2009, followed by leukemia in 2015. For your information, let us tell you that the risk of death from this is up to 10 percent. During this treatment, the entire immunity of the person changes.

It took 6 years for the German man to defeat both HIV and cancer. According to doctors at Berlin's Charite University Hospital, the patient's reports indicate that he is cured.

But I am not completely convinced yet. However, I am hopeful that this person will definitely get rid of HIV. As you know, the chances of survival in a disease like AIDS are very low. According to the records so far, only 6 people have been completely cured of this disease. If he also gets cured, then he will be the 7th person to be completely cured.
