dsc.discovery.com — HIV is notorious for its ability to mutate and evade drugs designed to destroy it. Now scientists are testing a new drug that actually speeds up that rate of change in the hope that the deadly virus will mutate itself to death.

When I read HIV Mutates to Death with New Drug, I thought it meant the drug would mutate HIV into 'Death'. Know what I mean?

Actually, one of the reasons AIDS is such an efficient killer is because it takes such a long time to kill and therefore has plenty of time to be transmitted to others. If the AIDS virus killed a person a day or even a week after it was contracted, I'm betting it would have wiped itself out before it ever became a problem.

They can only reproduce with the help of an infected host. Virus is incapable of reproducing on its own, thus not a life form.

That means I don't have to worry about some super freak mutant AIDS virus.

Guys who are praying are not butt-fu***** some Aids Infected person. Maybe this is the revelation we all were waiting for. Pray Pray Pray (leave the harder bit).
