HIV can’t be cured – Zambia Aids Research Foundation

Zambia Aids Research Foundation has disputed clinical trials showing a cure on a deadly HIV Virus that causes Aids.

Dr. Ludwig Sondashi says his herbal medicine called Sondashi Formula 2000 has gone through clinical trials in three countries and showed that it is able to cure a virus. He has urged the Zambian government to find a pharmaceutical company that is able to process the herbal and make it available to the people.

But Zambia Aids Research Foundation has disputed the findings saying there is no cure for HIV virus.

Below is a statement in full:

Once you are HIV  positive , you are HIV positive for life , no one has cleared the virus through treatment or any special formulas , even if HIV  is undetectable in the blood    ( viral load test can’t detect  HIV less than 50  to 20 copies per ml ) , the virus hides and persists  in Memory T cells that are LATENT RESERVOIRS  and hides in brain  cells and lymph nodes , and the virus comes back . Hence there is no formula to cure / eradicate HIV . If a viral load test does not detect HIV , then the PCR DNA  test using brain and lymph node tissue samples will  prove the existence of the virus  .
•
•Drug resistance occurs over a period of time , since HIV  is constantly  evolving and mutating . When you take ARVs and develop drug resistance , you have the choice of  2nd , 3rd line drugs. These  Special formulas don’t have such a choice.
•
•The people should demand to know how these so called formula cures work . ARVs block replication enzymes such as Reverse transcriptase , integrase and protease there by blocking HIV  production . Can the makers of the formula drugs explain how their drugs work ?
•
•Special Formulas and drugs that are taken together with ARVs can cross react and reduce the efficacy of ARVs , thereby causing Resistance to ARVs and cause toxicity.
•
•clinical trials are done in-vitro ( test tubes ) , then on monkeys  (in-vivo ) and thereafter on humans , what works in test tube may not work in humans  , however  some people are risking their lives bydirectly  taking such formula drugs that is only harming their health and causing premature death .

YOU DONT NEED TO SPEND THOUSANDS OF KWACHA TO DO A CLINICAL TRIAL , ALL THAT IS NEEDED IS TO GIVE THESE SO CALLED FORMULA DRUGS (instead of using humans as guinea pigs  ) TO MACAQUE MONKEYS THATARE INJECTED WITH SIV THE EQUIVALENT OF HIV IN HUMANS , AND SEE IF THESE FORMULAS WORK , I’TS THAT SIMPLE , THAN SPENDING HUGE SUMS OF MONEY .  AFTER 5 OR 6 MONTHS , TEST THESE MONKEYS FOR SIV IN THE BRAIN AND LYMPH NODES USING PCR DNA TESTS , AND YOU WILL KNOW FOR SURE THAT THESE FORMULAS WILL NEVER ERADICATE THE VIRUS.
