<p>Plus, the genetic mutation found in Brown&;s donor, which makes patients resistant to HIV, is extremely rare.

I didn't even know there was such a thing.

I'm a little skeptical... If it works in the long haul than hot damn, that's awesome beyond words!

If he can maintain this, and it's true, nice. If this is a scam, dick move.

Then it's decided: we must enslave the HIV-immune mutants and farm them for their precious stem cells!

Well this is great, but it doesn't seem like it's going to be very fruitful in terms of producing a cure available for most of the HIV infected populations.

Sadly, even if it really has cured the AIDS, it just doesn't apply to most people who have AIDS. Strange, though, this guy can now be thankful that he had cancer.

I agree, for once someone can be thankful that they had cancer. I hope this is true, it would save a lot of lives suffering. But as it states, there was a genetic mutation in the donor so maybe it wouldn't work for other patients. Here's hoping!
