What are your ideas of curing / eradicating HIV/AIDS?

OK, SO UP TO DATE THERE IS NO CURE. But sometimes we often meditate and think of craziest or sensible ways that we can cure sicknesses, including HIV/AIDS. What concept would you come up with that you think can work? Otherwise, how can it be eradicated?
(No hate answers or responses of profanity will be tolerated, as that willmay be reported to the administration of Yahoo! Answers.)

Quite unfortunately, there's no modern cure for any strong diseases and health problems / complications like: Systemic Sclerosis (no strong cure yet, but there are ways to live with it "in harmony"), AIDS/HIV and Cancer (just to name the few). However, there is a way of making the patient feel better and ease their pain. Doctors are at loss as to what to do in any severe case of suffering. They gave a vow to serve and heal all without any resentment or double-guessing. All of them keep that vow even though it is hard for them, especially when they might / do loose a Patient knowing that they haven't done everything to help him/her in this case.

I believe, due to the increase in the of population and high demand on this-and-that, modern technology and medicine are over-looking the other side of the curing / healing / improving someone's lifestyle: Alternative Medicines and Therapies.

Alternative Medicines and Therapies include the following: Yoga, Acupuncture, Fasting, Herbal Therapies and Medicines, Aroma Therapies and many other ones that'll take days to describe. Chinese Herbalogists / Acupuncturists / Therapists -- they all have highest Medical Degrees in this field and can serve as the powerful source of information. If to look into how the body functions and behaves when certain problems arrise and how they affect the health and well-being of the person, you'll be able to find the answer practically for everything. The only requirements are:
- Open-minded and positive outlook from the Patient, his/her family members, and the caring Professional who'll be helping the Patient.
- Being able to look over everything that's present at the moment and look TOGETHER for the solutions.
- Do not give up ahead of time and no matter what don't put it into the Patient's head "It can't be done" or "It's holpeless, there's no cure." Otherwise, once in his/her head, you'll see a negative reaction to the overall health and in worst case scenario, it'll deteriorate even worse and a lot faster. Think of it this way: Right before you'll drink a glass of water say out loud "It's the sweetest water I've ever tasted" and mean it when you say it. What do you think will happen? The result will be surprising: the water in the glass WILL taste as sweet as you never expected before. If THAT can do to the water, what do you will happen to an ill person's body when we consist of about 90% of H2O?

I strongly believe that if the Modern Doctors / Health Professionals and Alternative Medicines and Therapies Professional would work as one and/or side-by-side WITHOUT hate / resentment / disgust / shock / fear and be more open-minded to BOTH sides. Surgeries will be performed less and Doctor's will valued a lot more than ever before, only because of working side by side with those who know SO much about other ways to heal and cure the Human Race. Can you believe the wonderful and positive changes that will be going on then? The Doctors will be trusted more and people will be able to depend on them a little bit more. And plus to that, the Alternative Medicine and Therapies will get the honor it so richly deserves in this modern life and in our world of the highly developed technology :)

Just IMAGINE how strong the Medicine and Cures will be in ANY case and ANY problem that might arise again in the future... How many people we'll be able to safe and how many diseases we'll be able to prevent from ever occuring again... The numbers of healthier, stronger, and less fearfull of the unknown, people will rise expanentially. It'll be a new world, new life and new lifestyle, that can't be compared to anything we ever had or have.

Just to let you know there are couple of books (out of so many available now in the book stores) on this called:
- "Alternative Medicine: The Practical Guide"
- "Foods that Harm, Foods that Heal" by Reader's Digest
I have both of them, and always relying on what it is that they introduce as a "healthy-no-drugs-needed-in-specific-cas... way to solve an ailement.

Best of luck, take care, and stay healthy :)

Well, some people has HIV/AIDS and are not affected, they are totally immune to it. Maybe we can use them to make some kind of cure or something.

We just need to come up with an HIV-equivilent virues for all the infectious diseases in the world so they'll be weaker too.

Handing out free condoms (that don't have the intructions stapled to them) and having an aggressive campaign in schools, and in the media. It would also help if big name celebrities were to join that campaign to raise awareness.

Provide hospitals in developing countries with sterile syringes, and train them in proper use and disposal. Dirty (re-used) syringes are a majour cause of the spread of HIV.

Nanobots.

Inject nanobots into the bloodstream that change the protein matrix surrounding the virus. White blood cells would no longer recognize the protein matrix and wouldn't 'consume' the virus. Problem solved.

Okay... so it's horribly improbable... but it would work.

I think our best bet is with vaccine, they're making some pretty exciting progress with some strains.

Ideas? Yes I do:

Stop having unprotected sex: this is one of the fastest ways that the disease is spread. The community has been educated, but they just aren't taking action. Some of them claim they couldn't help it because they were drunk or stoned, so there's another thing that needs to go.

Stop sharing dirty needles: drug habits are the second fastest way to spread this disease.

If people would take control of themselves and put a stop to foolish behaviors like these, you would see a drastic drop in the number of people with HIV. But it seems like such a dream doesn't it?

this is such a hard question, but if i could change one thing, it would be to stop the war in iraq and spending soooo much money on the military and take all those millions of dollars being WASTED and put it towards research for a cure, vaccine, education, and medication for the needy. what the hiv/aids problem needs is MORE MONEY and more focus, sometimes it really seems like it is not a priority at ALL to our government or people to help this epidemic here, and worldwide, when i personally believe it is a huge and tragic problem that needs much more attention and funding than it currently recieves.
