This is BS. So much research is going on, also within universities and research from funded donation groups, by scientists whose only interest is to find a cure. But also tons of commercial companies are working on it. Sangamo biosciences for example has already booked great successes in their phase II study where they modified patients DNA to become resistant against the virus. See www.sangamo.com . Really, the cure is close.Comment

Besides this, most scientist are highly ethical and would NEVER trade money over (quality of) life. And also, most people would rather have billions AND go into the history books as the first to have cured this disease instead of having trillions and have to live with the fact that they've ruined lives of millions of people. And I'm not even talking about the fact that they'd have to deal with being criminals (since Sangamo is publicly traded and they'd risk years of prison sentence screwing their investors)Comment

I always hate conspiracy theories like this. You really think somebody is going to pay-off Sangamo to not release their therapy ? Any idea how much money is needed ? If they're the only company on earth who have a HIV cure, how much do you think that company is worth ? Who would have the money to pay-off such company ? And even if a huge pharmaceutical like Pfizer would offer them all their money, then how much time would Pfizer need to just break even on that trade ? I bet at least 30 years. And do you really think there's not going to be a cure within such timeframe ?

The difference between having 10 million and 100 million is huge. With 10 million you can buy a nice house, some nice cars and that's it. You can't buy that 50m long cruise boat, nor your private island in addition. However what's the difference between having 500 million and a trillion ? That's ONLY about status. And if you can't even show the world you have such money (since you've got it illegally by accepting pay-off money and thus screwing your investors), then why would anyone do such thing ? And how do you spend it without raising questions ? Do you have any idea how difficult it is to white-wash a billion dollars ?
So, no, I'm not naive, I'm just realistic. Most conspiracy theories, including this one, dont make any sense at all if you think about it.Comment
