Scientists in Iran have announced that they have found a cure for
AIDS.
The Iranian Minister for Health and Education, Kamran Baqeri
Lankarani said in a statement yesterday that the new formula would
be administered for at least three-months and would have lasting
effects for up to two-years, compared to drugs that need to be
continually administered.
According to Iran's former Health Minister, Doctor Mohammad
Farhadi, the formula, which took at least five years to formulate,
is composed of a variety of "herbs" and some "chemical
materials."
"A new theory was sponsored in the past five years to invent a
formula with herbal and chemical materials to help treat patients
who are suffering from weak immunity system," said Dr.
Farhadi.
"The theory was to determine whether or not it is possible to boost
the immunity system of the body. Some 60 projects were initiated to
attain the result. At last the scientists found out a formula and
then experimental works were carried out on animals at the
laboratory to determine the effects of the formula," added
Farhadi.
Lankarani stated that the drug has been tested on several patients
and that the effects of the drug are "guaranteed" to work for at
least two-years, but also said that the drug may not work for a
human during his or her entire "life time."
"For the time being, we cannot say that effects of the
newly-discovered medicine will remain in the body along the life
time," said Lankarani.
