Aids treated by putting person in a bubble

Cecil's Columns/Staff Reports

Cecil said at the end of the column that AIDS will kill everyone who contracts it.
There was a group of infected people that contracted the AIDS virus from the same person, and had not been adversely affected. I saw this a few years back on a documentary about AIDS. AIDS being a constantly mutating virus, this person had infected these people with a mutated version that wasn’t killing them. They were being studied for a possible way to fight AIDS. I would like to know if these people are still healthy, since a number of years have passed since the show aired.

Yeah, and I remembering seeing a news story one night that reported that a baby that had originally contracted aids from its mother had somehow been cured of it… what about this story? and updates on it?

Thanks, Omni, since Cecil was quoting me, and I don’t have to repeat myself!
