Gene therapy for HIV has been introduced to humans for the first time.

This is the first genetic drug against HIV, which was invented 40 years after the discovery of the disease and which is not a vaccine. Moreover, for the first time such serious tests are carried out not on monkeys, but on humans. The new technique allows you to edit the genes, thus removing the DNA of the virus from infected cells. Thus, therapy completely destroys the infection in the patient's body.
