OXFORD, England, Sept. 29 (UPI) -- Children who possess special immunities to HIV infections can pave the way for a host of new treatments for the disease, an Oxford University-led study suggests.
Currently, over half of all children living with HIV die before they are 2 years old. Others, however, are able to live a normal life often without realizing they are infected at all. According to Oxford University scientists, children with these characteristics may be a boon for HIV treatment.
