Lagos — Since the discovery of the Human Immuno Deficiency Virus (HIV) which causes Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) 27 years ago, the world has been confronted with the penalty posed by the reality that no cure has been found against the disease.Again, no vaccine approved by the World Health Organisation (WHO) has been invented, thereby extending the hope for stable eradication of the virus.
Even the ARV drugs used in the management of People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) is in short supply in poor countries, as some giver nations to developing countries have soft-pedaled in their funding activities, partly due to the global financial recession, and distraction of funds meant for HIV/AIDS medication into private pockets of some corrupt government officials.
Whereas the developed nations have what it takes to provide for their PLWHAS, the poor countries still depend on drugs from outside donors to take care of theirs.In the quest to limit the spread of the virus, scientists in advanced countries are busy struggling to discover reliable vaccines, while traditional and orthodox healers in some developing nations like Nigeria are parading range of medications which they claim to be potent for HIV cure, even AIDS.
