What’s an Israeli Boycotter To Do When Israel Discovers Major HIV Breakthrough?

Breitbart-

Scientists in Israel have announced a breakthrough in HIV research, a development that will leave Israel boycotters with their latest ethical dilemma. The team from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev say their finding will result in a “revolutionary diagnosis and the key to the clinical solution that will prevent infection with HIV and will destroy the deadly virus.”

i24News reports that Dr Ran Taube of the Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Genetics at the southern Israeli university said his team has discovered similarities between HIV (the virus that leads to AIDS) and leukemia. Conducted in collaboration with Dr. Uri Rubio of Soroka University Medical Center, the research aims both to stamp out AIDS and to slow the progress of a rare mixed-lineage leukemia mostly occurring in children.

Despite the fact AIDS is now classed as a chronic disease treated with anti-retroviral drugs, to date there has been no treatment proven to prevent the spread of the HIV virus. The number of HIV-infected individuals still rises every year, so if this team of research scientists from Israel has made the breakthrough that leads directly or indirectly to the development of a workable vaccine they have done the world a great service.

Unfortunately a certain group of scientists from outside Israel will not be collaborating in this effort to develop a vaccine that would rid the world of HIV.

  1. They’ll do the very same thing they do when Muslims in the Middle East throw gay men off of three story buildings — nothing. Then they’ll go right back to accusing us of being narrow minded

  2. The Left: “Yes, the Palestinians have a space program. They sometimes fire hundreds of rockets a week. Unfortunately, a few fall short, and the Israelis have to nerve to complain, given the fact that they illegally occupy Palestine’s down-range safety areas!”
