Default Man cured of AIDS

LINK TO THE GIST OF THE STORY

The radio stations were making a big deal out of this, this morning, making it an ethical question. Is one man worth "harming" for the common good, even if he is evil? Is Stimpson evil because he wont get more tests done etc. etc.

What do you guys think?

No, he was definetly according to doctors HIV positive...I guess I had a misleading title...he didnt have aids, he was HIV positive now that I think about it. 14 months later, after a checkup, it was gone.

Not that it is impossible for a virus to disappear altogether, but I wonder if it wasn't just false positive to begin with.

Hopefully a better article will come out soon, the one that was linked has almost no information.

Couldn't the first test have been a false positive, or maybe the second test a false negative. I was under the impression that these tests were not infallible.
