It's titled,"With AIDS Advance, More Disappointment", leading one to speculate that this is a negative article regarding protease inhibitors...This would be an error..In fact, the discussion is largely about the experience of MD's of a decreasing mortality of AIDS patients...An example is cited at Case Western where an average of 8 of 650 AIDS patients died each month over 3 years..In December, for the first time, there were none...The Abelson article was of a similar ilk, pointing out that many AIDS patients do not respond and/or cannot tolerate the side effects...However, a significant number of people do respond to treatment...The questions of long term outcome, "cure", the right way to dose, will continue to be studied and argued...What people would be doing if there were no protease inhibitors available?.....
