I certainly know nada about this drug. But, what jumps to the front of my mind is what happened/is happening with Penicillin. Sure it is still a wonderful drug and helps many people but there are so many, many types of bacteria now that it doesn't touch and people build up resistance to it when they take it for the wrong reasons.

HIV is a virus not a bacteria. But, the theory is still relative, i think. If this drug prevents the virus, and we build resistance to the drug, if we do then get the virus, it may not do anything to help cure it. Since there are so few combo drugs that actually do help slow the HIV process down for decades prior to getting Aids, to me that is what is standing out in the forefront of this article.

I don't really know much about it....just something to consider.
