You pick out AIDS like there is a conspiracy. Scientists have not found a cure for ANY human viral disease. For some viral diseases we have been able to develop vaccines to prevent getting the disease but once you have it you have it and your body has to defeat it. Making a vaccine vor AIDS is difficult because of the rate at which it mutates. This is the same reason the flu is hard to control. It changes so fast you have to get a flu shot every year.

AIDS is particularly tough, because it destroys the very system that fights infections. There are plenty of treatments, and AIDS is no longer an imminent death sentence. It might even be better classified these days as a chronic illness, with how long patients survive. We have plenty of medications have many different mechanisms, but HIV hides out very stubbornly in the lymph nodes during latent periods. It's extremely difficult to eradicate all of the virus and effect a cure.

AIDS: acquired immune deficiency syndrome
HIV: human immune virus
Basically this is very powerful virus which attacks on our immune system and
Reduce the resistance power in human body,
And regarding medicine this virus is highly resistance and which contain capsule
Which is very strong, basically any medicine will work by damaging the capsule then damage the nuclear material but in this case if you use more powerful medicine to
Damage the capsule it will effect on our other cells and our organs,
So to develop the vaccine there are so many sub types of viruses is there ,as of now hardly we found HIV 1 &2, other than that so many sub types is there that is the reason
Vaccine is getting delayed , hope we can expect very soon we will get medicine

Well reason is that virus mutate and there is medication to control viral load and anti viral medication if you been exposed you can take it within 0-72 hours that can reduce your risk of having full blown HIV. Vaccination is on the way and researchers are working over time to find the cure.
But there are enough research done to prevent HIV so why don't we have safe handling and safe sex to avoid getting HIV?

the virus causing aids keeps on changing its identity, unabling the immune system to identify it time and again. moreover it infects and destroys cd4 t-lymphocytes which jeopardises the immunity. that's why we havn't been able to create a vaccine or a medicine.

Because there is already a cure and it does not have to do with medication. It has to do with living a clean life, and not being promiscuous - especially with members of the same sex, which is an abomination beyond belief.
There will NEVER be a medical cure - NEVER. Science (the religion of liberals) is finally trumped and is humbled. Thankfully.
