I know that this is really recent news, but does anyone have any 
information on the case that was announced about the elimination of AIDS 
in a patient through a bone marrow transplant? While this is not going to 
be a practical treatment for all sufferers, it does offer some more hope 
that AIDS can be beaten.

(yes, I do know that the patient did die of the cancer that he contracted 
from his case of AIDS)

Thanks.
