You might have already seen this, but scientists have treated a second baby for HIV. Research for an HIV cure is underway using “gene editing”. The protein that the virus binds to to infect a cell is removed from the body. Theoretically, this would prevent the cells from being infected. The baby is still on anti-HIV drugs, though the virus is undetectable.
