Has Iran really come up with a cure for AIDS?

Iran Introduces AIDS Cure
TEHRAN (Fars News Agency)- After 7 long years of arduous work, Iranian scientists here on Saturday introduced a herbal medicine which cures Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS).

"The drug named 'IMOD' is completely effective and safe with no proved side effects," Iran's Minister of Health, Treatment and Medical Training Kamran Bagheri Lankarani said during a ceremony at Tehran's Imam Khomeini Hospital.

The Iranian AIDS drug strengthens immunity system of the patients against HIV and provides a more qualitative life for the affected population.

Despite the propaganda generated about Iran it is actually getting quite enlightened over there. I saw a program about the clinics they now have to help heroin addicts and I was very impressed by it. A few years back if you got caught with heroin you would be facing a public beheading!

There is a proven cure for HIV that is in limbo right now. It has reversed HIV and cured people. It would be really nice to know that there is a cure out there but I am sure the FDA wont approve it. Money runs this country, and that includes the FDA. Big money drug companies can buy out the FDA and keep these cures away. They make so much on the drugs to treat, they dont want that money taken away.

I dunno, I guess anything is possible.

My thoughts are that if this were true, it would be front page news overnight. The world would break into celebration and good cheer at human accomplishment. Iran would be honored publicly around the world, including the United States for a stunning accomplishment.

Because none of that has happened, I think there is very little to this story. (Unfortunately)

hmm i checked some other sites and they all say this is a "possible" cure. As in they have NO CLUE whether or not it will cure aids yet...but it has been provened to medicate the symptoms.

My understanding of viruses, is that there has Never been a cure for any virus. They have many medicines to deal with the effects of viruses but not to cure them. We will see...
