• Is a Cure for Aids Possible? Amfar Funds Studies Aimed at Viral Eradication

NEW YORK, June 27 /U.S. Newswire/ -- amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, today announced 12 grants and fellowships to investigate the potential of eradicating HIV from the body. These new awards, totaling nearly $1.5 million, represent amfAR's commitment to funding scientific studies that may reveal how to eliminate the virus altogether. Many consider research focused on viral reservoirs, latent virus and acute HIV infection to be the first steps toward an elusive cure for HIV infection. In the past, scientists have regarded talk of 'AIDS cures' with suspicion," said Dr. Rowena Johnston, who directs amfAR's research program. "A quarter-century of dashed hopes make even the most optimistic scientific minds reluctant to imagine a body free of HIV. The grantees and fellows we have...

• Hope for Aids Cure Emerges

In a bold new approach ultimately aimed at trying to cure AIDS, scientists used genetic engineering in six patients to develop blood cells that are resistant to HIV, the virus that causes the disease. It's far too early to know if this scientific first will prove to be a cure, or even a new treatment. The research was only meant to show that, so far, it seems feasible and safe.

• 'Even If Animal Research Resulted in a Cure for Aids, We'd Beagainst It'; Anti-Peta Ads Running On D.C. Metro Use Radical Peta'sown Words

WASHINGTON, May 9 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Most Americans would do anything in their power to save the life of a loved one diagnosed with a terminal illness. But most Americans aren't members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The radical group dedicated to "total animal liberation" has made it clear that given the choice between saving the lives of sick people and lab rats, rodents should win every time. In new ads running on the Washington, D.C. Metro system, the Center for Consumer Freedom draws attention to PETA's decidedly unethical hostility toward the use of animals for life-saving medical research. The ads quote PETA president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk saying: "Even if animal research resulted in a cure for AIDS, we'd be against it.

• Blacks More Worried About Hiv Than Whites

Respondents were asked: "Bearing in mind the different ways people can be infected with HIV, how concerned are you personally about becoming infected with HIV?" Thirty-eight percent of African-Americans said they were "very concerned" about being infected with HIV. Only 6 percent of Whites gave the same answer. Important shares of the public also continue to be uninformed or misinformed about the current state of HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment," the report stated. "More than half (55 percent) do not know that a pregnant woman with HIV can take drugs to reduce the risk of her baby being born infected, nearly one in five (18 percent) are unaware that there is no cure for AIDS, and 12 percent do not know, that there are drugs available that can lengthen the lives of people with HIV.

• Word From the Street; Michael Jackson, Dr. Sebi, George Bush Go for the Platinum Touch

These "angels," Dr. [Sebi] and [Michael Jackson], met with President [George Bush], who found in his heart to make available a portion of the monies appropriated from AIDS research allowing Michael to go into the studio and lay music tracks for the healing and cure of AIDS. The 80 billion dollars President Bush appropriated will be a blessing to the many children who are suffering under this death sentence. I think this is how most people who decided to eradicate AIDS from Africa felt when they announced to the world that they not only have money for the research of AIDS, but they have a cure and the cure master, Dr. Sebi. Dr. Sebi, a poor and humble black man from Honduras, known as "the mysterious healer," and founder of the USHA Research Institute, recently stated "We have the cure f...
