First HIV Cure Reported, A New Hope For Life

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome or Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a dangerous disease, generally caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which attacks the human immune system. It reduces the effectiveness of the immune system and leaves individuals to infections and tumors. Finally, it results in the death of that individual.

But in year 2005, a person named Andrew Stimpson made medical history. He became the first person who beat the AIDS virus. A diagnosis of 14 months showed that the deadly virus had left his body. All doctors were surprised by the results of the tests. They believe this case as a breakthrough in the search for a cure for AIDS. He was diagnosed with the virus in August 2002.

Earlier in the past, nobody has ever been proved to clear himself or herself from HIV; but Mr. Simpson’s case made it true. Thus, this result makes a new hope of life to those who are already fighting with this dangerous disease.
