Why not do the same thing for cancer victims. Quick, patent this idea before anyone else can.

Quote :
"Leukemia or leukaemia (see spelling differences) is a cancer of the blood or bone marrow and is characterized by an abnormal proliferation (production by multiplication) of blood cells, usually white blood cells (leukocytes). It is part of the broad group of diseases called hematological neoplasms."


aids kills white blood cells. leukemia produces too many white blood cells uncontroalably. if you gave aids to a person with leukemia then it would start killing some of those white blood cells and put them back at equilibrium. if you gav leukemia to an aids victim it would produce too many white blood cells but they would be ineffective. So the only thing left to do would be cure leukemia and we would have solved both aids and leukemia.

^^ incorrect, HIV infects helper T cells (specifically CD4+ T cells), macrophages and dendritic cells
not "all white blood cells"
with these cells becoming non functional (or destroyed) (developing in to AIDS) your immune system can no longer properly 'target' infectious organisms (AIDS) thus letting them eventually kill you (death)

Leukemia is a cancer of any number of white blood cells, causing them to proliferate to a degree that your blood becomes white (where the name leukemia comes from) thus displacing red blood and platelet cell production and volume eventually causing death via hypoxia, or internal bleeding or auto immune attack

Did you think all that up by yourself?

You should be awarded a PhD from Harvard Medical School.
