There is no such treatment. And as for "some say that scientists have discovered"......that's always crap. Until you see it on the news (trust me, this would be a big deal), it's not true.

Science absolutely knows how to stop the spread of AIDS. Unfortunately, it takes public education, widespread availability of condoms, and overall cooperation from individuals.

BUT, science has practically eliminated the spread via contaminated blood or blood products through use of sophisticated and sensitive treatments.

Once people are infected, they're living a lot longer and healthier, because of meds science as developed. AZT was the first break-through drug. It's still in play, along with a variety of reverse transcriptase inhibitors, protease inhibitors, and fusion inhibitors.

Science has indeed make remarkable progress during the past decade of AIDS.
But people remain the weak link.
