What do you think of these "cures" for AIDS/HIV?

A "holy water treatment offered by a church in Ethiopia http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,3...

The president of Gambia claims he has found a cure for HIV/AIDS

Pure unadulterated nonsense!

I only read the second one, but sounds like placebo treatment.

I can't say that it elminates the virus, but the quotes from the people sound like it is helping, in any case.

We have always had snake oil salesmen & probably always will. Nothing really new here.

It's a virus that attacks the blood which destroys your immune system.

I personally think that it is possible and they might have a cure. But you do have to realize that the market for the meds make over a billion a year, so if indeed they did have a cure they would not share it that quickly............

In biblical time there was a healer that spoke to plants and that cured any sickness with a plant. So a visit to a herbal specialist would actually help or clear it........ Because if the doctors can maintain it and you can still live a full life and have children and affect them, come on what do you think........

You surely have AIDS I think and for answering such foolish answers I am sure you do!!!!
