A YOUNG British man thought to be the first person to have shaken off HIV, the virus that causes Aids, is to undergo further clinical tests in the hope of a breakthrough in treating the condition.
Andrew Stimpson, 25, said yesterday that he was willing to do all he could to help to tackle the condition, after it emerged that his body had apparently rid itself of the human immunodeficiency virus.
Mr Stimpson, a Scot living in London, was found to be HIV-positive in August 2002, but 14 months later a blood test suggested that he no longer carried the virus. A further three tests confirmed the finding.
Doctors believe that this first confirmed case of �spontaneous clearance??? of HIV could offer important insights into the behaviour of the virus, and possible means of defeating it.

Obviously this is heavily subsidised by advertising, but I also have to turn ten pages of adverts to get to the contents page, and more often than not the products being advertised are available to me in the UK anyway, so it’s not as if the marketing budget is going to waste on international readers.
If you have hypertension, it’s important that you can pronounce this word. A sphygmomanometer is more commonly known as a blood pressure reader, and ehow has an article about how to use one.
