I remember a time when HIV meant certain death basically
I’m glad to hear such news, and I hope it can be beaten once and for all
Likely? Like why are we not sure
Probably not coincidental that this is easier to achieve with Nordic bone marrow donors:
> The CCR5delta32 mutation protects against most variants of HIV. It is most commonly found among people in Northern Europe.
> The Oslo patient received a bone marrow transplant from his twin brother, who happened to carry this mutation.
Excellent news!
