We applaud this scientific breakthrough but note that it was only possible because the patient was being treated for cancer. This is not a viable cure for non-cancer patients as it is expensive and the procedure risks potentially life-threatening complications.

Globally, 10 million people living with HIV (PLWH) are unable to access treatment. We call on governments and pharma to make the tools we have against HIV accessible and affordable to all who need them.
