JOHN, I certainly have no illusions about educating all readers. I supply some basic information on biology and its predicted consequences. I have not commented on the implications for AGPH or Viracept. You seem to want to put your own spin on my posts, which of course ypu can do. Such spins never cease to amaze me and they are very entertaining.

<< Henry never said that resisatance will develop in a matter of days and I apologize if it appeared to you that I did, but he certainly implied that resistance will eventually develop for everyone. That is dangerous, because that thought process could encourage patients and doctors to wait and not hit this virus early and hard. Their first shot is their best, and if it was me I would immediately start with 2 PIs>> JOHN, Are you saying that you are smarter than the above patients and doctors, i.e. you are among the select few that can interpret the implications of my posts and then decide that such implications are incorrect? I must admit that you have a unique perspective. Again I did not suggest that either patients stop taking medications or MDs stop following established guidelines for treating HIV. I simply indicated that resistant strains will develop eventually, and the time frame is dependent on many factors. I also indicated that I would put 2 years in the "short term" category.
