A man known as the “ #GenevaPatient ” has become the latest person in the world to be cured of #HIV after a #StemCellTransplant for #Cancer treatment.
While there have been five other known cases of people who have been cured of HIV - meaning they have been declared in long-term remission - his case is so far unique. He’s the only one who received #StemCells from a donor who does not have a rare gene mutation - #CCR5 - that blocks HIV from entering cells.
