Second HIV patient reportedly cured after bone marrow transplant

I don’t think we’re in the Roddenberry timeline, and frankly, I hope we’re not.

The Eugenic Wars and the genetically enhanced supermen sounds fucking horrific, and I simply don’t have enough faith that humanity would actually end up as well it did in the series.

My Gram always did say ‘hope for the best but prepare for the worst.’

Bone marrow transplants are heavy, heavy stuff. I’ve watched a neighbour go through it. The side effects are tremendous; having a different blood group afterwards is the only funny bit about it.
But, he is one of the lucky few who made it - four years and counting, and able to live a reasonable normal life, considering.

Pass.
