With regards to an HIV cure breakthrough 2011 seems to be a really good year. Aside from the usual run of the mill herbal solutions that you could find strewn all over the Internet, various scientific and medical breakthroughs may be very near the horizon. For one, Forbes.com reports that a new drug developed by Koronis Pharmaceuticals takes the paradigm over its head by accelerating the propagation of the virus rather than impeding it. The acceleration may consequently then “over-mutate” the virus possibly leading to its own breakdown. This is good news for the over 2.6 million HIV/AIDS victims who are still clinging on the hope that a cure might be found. One.org credits political will and drive to the accelerating pace of HIV/AIDS drug development.

Moreover, it could be observed that many notable personalities have thrown in their weight and resources to help in finding an HIV breakthrough 2011. Personalities such as Sir Richard Branson of Virgin Media, Bill Gates of The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, U2s Bono, and numerous government agencies all around the world are all doing their part to finally find a solution to this worldwide epidemic. Today, many institutions exert various approaches in coming up with a cure to this elusive virus. Aside from Koronis Pharmaceuticals, there are over 5,839 AIDS researchers committed to finding real world solutions to the dreaded disease. These researchers have recently presented their findings in the recent International Aids Society conference last July 18, 2011. The prospects are heartening but the task remains to be completed.    

Possible solutions for HIV breakthrough 2011 also includes findings derived last December 2010 by German researchers involving the transplant of bone marrow. But critics say that the paradigm is highly dangerous because it would require the “destruction of bone marrow”. Another development would include Nobel Prize winner Dr. David Baltimore who believes that genetic engineering could be the key in addressing the problem of AIDS. Various researchers agree and are now exerting all their efforts in the research field of genetic engineering. Engineered stem cells are also very promising in that regard but further development and research would be needed.

For now, addressing HIV breakthrough 2011 for those who do not have the virus yet would ultimately rely on safe sex and healthy practices. Even circumcision has been touted by IAS delegates as particularly effective in limiting the spread of the disease. The world is at the precipice of a solution that could finally solve one of the most challenging problems of modern society.
