A New Hope
Scientists have discovered that a virus, previously thought to be inert and before that to cause hepatitis, thwarts HIV. GB-virus C (GB-C) infection strongly prolonged the lives of its hosts who also had HIV.
They have yet to figure out how it does this, as viruses have not previously been shown to compete much at all, and never so directly.
Yay.
