This is huge. If this method works, it could lead to cures for many problems facing the world. Even possibly treatments for HIV.

This is very interesting news... it will be exciting to see if anything comes of it.

I like the possibility that dormant viruses may actually be treatable in time.

No, nature already does that, what they are talking about if finding a way of helping it do it more efficiently... while the breakthrough is the fact that they discovered nature can do it.

This is pretty cool stuff. So instead of figuring out ways to kill a cell (like chemo and such) we can find ways to boost the antibodies to kill the virus for us.

That is REALLY good news.
