Wait, you're saying they shouldn't find a cure because AIDS is supposed to be a plague? That's very short-sighted of you, since many completely innocent people get AIDS either from birth, from not realizing it exists (as in third-world countries), or even from unintentional contraction (i.e. partner/spouse lied or they were raped).

As for there being no cure, I'm positive that there will eventually be some kind of cure, even if it means the use of nanobots that physically destroy the virus. It will come eventually. Soon AIDS will take the course of smallpox (in being mostly extinct, I mean).

People make honest mistakes, do you think someone who has HIV, or gets it...thinks "hey, i think i am going to have sex today, hopefully i will come down with something that will make my life a living hell", they don't and if they do getting HIV, is the least of my concerns for them. People can Get HIV, at anytime, from any person, no matter how many times they have sex. Its like the game on computers, where you click the squares, and try to avoid the bomb, you may end up clicking the bomb the first time around, or maybe never...or in the middle of the game.

Not to sound like one of those optimistic people, but in my opinion I do believe we will find a cure for AIDS and HIV. They said we would never find a cure for Small Pox, but we did. Same thing with Polio. However, I do think there is a cure for the problem already. I think people need to be tested more often for the virus. As long as those people who are infected don't spread it the virus will disappear.

I'm not saying quarantine people is the answer to the issue. Its just that I think the main reason this has become a problem is, because of people lack in responsibility in getting tested and if they test positive for the virus to not spread it to other people. I even think people who go off and spread the virus without knowing they had it in the first place are just as bad as spreading it and know you have it. If you are planning on going off and having sex with multiple partners, then you should get tested at least once a month. If you come up positive for the virus, its your job to go and get a hold of your partners and tell them they may have the virus too and to get tested.

Unfortunately, AIDS, even being one of the most deadly STDs, is the only one that doesn't have to be tested for and, if one tested positive, does not have to be announced as such.
