Not far enough with HIV. Yes we have pills that significantly expand lifespan (by up to 30-40 years), but they make you severely prone to cancer and your immune system never really has a full chance to recover making you prone to all kinds of opportunistic infections. We really need a cure and I don’t think we’re moving fast enough with CRISPR based solutions. We know how to excise the HIV, we know how to add the CCR5 gene to T cells. We need to move faster.
