Two women found with HIV-immune mutant gene
by Lost at 12:47 am EDT, Oct 7, 2004

] Zhu explained that the immune systems of some individuals
] may be capable of resisting HIV infection. These
] individuals who do not appear to be infected with HIV
] despite multiple sexual encounters with HIV infected
] partners are referred to as exposed seronegatives (ES).
]
] To be specific, any one who has conducted sexual
] activities at least twice weekly in four consecutive
] months with an HIV-infected partner might be identified
] as ES.
]
] Of 11 ES cases, two cases have later been identified as
] carrying the mutant genes.
]
] In Zhu's opinion, if medicine functioning similarly with
] the genes was put in the vagina and rectum, the HIV virus
] couldn't find its carrier to enter the human body and
] thus would be expelled.
]
] In Shenzhen, both confirmed samples are women who have
] been exposed to HIV for many years but remained
] uninfected.
