do not know if anyone's been watching much news, but it has been all over TV here, a baby girl in Mississipi USA has been apparently cured of AIDS but it is unknown why exactly this has happened?

I remember a few years ago someone else was cured too...if I remember correctly it was from a bone marrow transplant? He had been infected for several years too.

I get the impression that the specialists do not know exactly why the baby was cured.
