Wow.

Via CNN: A man appears free of HIV after a stem cell transplant.

The doctors cited in the article all downplay the viability of this as a treatment for HIV, since "About a third of the people die [during such transplants]."

The guy's leukemia also relapsed.

But still, wow.

I can almost hear fundamentalist Christians now.

"Stem cells.... bad? RAAWWWRRRR JESUS SMAAASH!"
