HIV cure: The daunting scale of the problem. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38359111/)
These scientists wanted to understand why it is so difficult to cure certain diseases. They studied how the disease-causing germs hide and survive in the body, making it hard for medicines to completely get rid of them. They looked at how these germs can stay hidden for a long time even after treatment. By learning more about this, they hope to come up with better ways to treat these diseases in the future.
