Oh really?
I thought magic johnson was alive because he can afford HIV medications...
Combination of both I guess? Well, the tard that appeared in the news managed to stay alive since 96, but some unfortunate women were taken out before him...
Regardless, it is possible.

Maybe they didn't know they were infected so they took no medication until it was too late.

Hmm. HIV/AIDs was and still is very common in Africa, so it might have been possible for some people to become immune to it a long way down the line. It's possible, but iunno broski.
Given how much viruses mutate, its only fair if we mutate along with it.

-points to magic Johnson-
Mmhmm. That man has been HIV negative for YEARS now. Meaning, he can transfer it, but he has no symptoms. I also heard that his wife and children don't have the virus. I think he had his kids after getting the virus.
On a side note, did you know that there are some prostitutes in Africa that have been found to be immune to the virus? I honestly haven't heard much about this since I first heard about it 3 years ago. Anyone know anything about it?
Fudge! That's what my health teacher named his daughter.

Mmm, our bodies adapt a lot slower than actual viruses, though. But you are correct.

I don't know much about Magic Johnson but iirc his condition is managed through medication. As long as you can afford medication you can live pretty symptom free even with HIV. As far as immunity goes, there are people who can host HIV but never develop AIDS. iirc 5% of Scandinavians (or it was some other European country) have this immunity.

Too bad that AIDS hasn't seem to kill him yet even though he has the HIV virus.
The V in HIV means virus so you just called it
HI-Virus Virus.
Just saying.
Quote from Cynic;535132:
Yerp. If my memory isn't sh*t, you CAN be a carrier of HIV and never develop fully blown AIDs. But don't hold me on that.
Well you're right. It would anyway be unreasonable to assume that none of the host organisms would at least develop a resistance.

Only because we are much more complex organisms.

He should be skinned alive in public execution while given drugs to stimulate the pain and keep him lucid, and then he should be strangled with his own entrails while watching his family murdered in front of him.
That is the only justice for these people.
