Only Person Ever Cured Of HIV Shares Experience

Timothy Ray Brown is the first person to have been cured of HIV, and he is now sharing his experiences with scientists at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. The Seattle man was diagnosed with HIV in 1995 and was diagnosed with leukemia more than a decade later. A stem cell transplant eradicated both diseases, and now scientists are looking at Brown's case to potentially find a cure for HIV.
