Vancouver
(AFP) - A French teenager born with HIV has been in remission for 12 years
after stopping her medication, a world-first that renews hope for the prospect
of early treatment, researchers said Monday.
The young
woman, now 18, is not considered cured, but is doing perfectly well off
treatment, said the research led by Asier Saez-Cirion of the HIV, Inflammation
and Persistence Unit at the Institut Pasteur in Paris.
Never
before have scientists known of a case in which an HIV-infected child goes into
long-term remission, said the research presented at the International AIDS
Society meeting in this western Canadian city.
"We
can detect HIV in the cells, but what we cannot detect is viral replication in
the plasma," Saez-Cirion told AFP in an interview.
"We
don't know yet why this girl was able to control the infection," he added.
The girl
does not have the genetic factors associated with natural control of infection,
which has been seen in a rare group of patients.
"Most
likely she has been in virological remission for so long because she received a
combination of antiretrovirals very soon after infection," said the
report.
The young
woman, whose identity was not revealed, was infected with HIV either in utero
or during childbirth.
When she
was five, her family dropped out of the treatment program for unknown reasons.
When they returned her to medical care one year later, she "was found to
have an undetectable viral load," said the report.
Doctors
decided not to resume antiretroviral treatment for the child, but monitored
her.
Researchers
said the unconventional case bolsters growing evidence in adults that starting
treatment is essential immediately after HIV infection.

children infected by HIV," said the report.

Single
case
"This
case is going to be inspiring for people living with HIV and working in the
field," said scientist Sharon Lewin, who co-chaired a symposium earlier
this week on finding a cure for HIV.
"My
reservations are, it's a single case," Lewin told AFP.
"It's
also uncertain whether the teen would have controlled (her HIV infection)
without any treatment. We know one percent of people who become infected
naturally control the virus and don't require treatment."
The girl's
case may not be unique, but it is the first identified by researchers, said
Saez-Cirion.
"I'm
sure there will be others in the future," he said, noting there are still
relatively few studies of children infected at birth who are now young adults
and have been monitored for their entire lives.
Lewin
cautioned that no one should become complacent about finding a cure in the face
of growing evidence showing it is possible to treat HIV.
"The
reality is there are still two million new infections and 1.5 million deaths a
year from HIV and 35 million living with HIV," said Lewin.
"Whether
we can really fund that, sustain and keep people in lifelong care is
unclear."
Saez-Cirion
said the findings offer direction for future research.
The case
"shows that remission is possible, but rare. We need to understand why
it's not common, and which mechanisms are (involved) so that we can treat a
larger population."

".. The Three Parts - More to Consider Than You Think
There are three parts to the brain of the Human Being, but you are only aware of two of them. We’re going to give you the third part tonight. The second brain of the Human Being, which is processed by the synaptical part (the brain box), is the pineal. This is responsible for creative thinking, intuition and intellectual awareness. Intuition is starting to grow with humanity, and it comes from that which is your innate inside the body. It's getting smarter and is passing more to your brain to process at a greater frequency and strength as you evolve. It also is starting to give you Akashic information (past-life remembrances). You might say your pineal ’net is getting faster, and your brain is processing it. You are feeling that you are becoming more intuitively aware of things.
The bridge between Human consciousness and the smart body, the innate, is starting to mature and grow up. You are getting out of pure survival mode and many are starting to awaken to a greater truth. This is all being enhanced in the Human Being to a point where Humans will think, "The brain is doing better!" It isn’t. The brain remains the brain and will process a better intuition from the pineal. The brain remains a stellar survival organ, but intuition is going to get stronger and stronger. Again, your spiritual Internet is getting faster.
In this very 3D energy, you only see the one organ that you feel is responsible for everything you do, but there are actually three. The evolved Human Being has the potential to create light [awareness energy]. I just gave you something we can study later – information that is new. There’s a perception of spirituality being white light. It’s everywhere. You’ve seen it everywhere. There is the story of Moses and the burning bush. This was a flame that did not consume itself, but if you could really see it in reality, it was a white light. For him, it was a higher consciousness than he had ever seen before, an angelic energy coming through his pineal, projecting to him.
When you have a near-death experience, you go to the light. This is more than metaphoric. You start to create something we will call divinity and mastery. White light coming from you is the higher consciousness you. The more your DNA efficiency is increased, the whiter the light gets. This is a metaphor, but there is truth often behind all mythology, and this is one of those. Dear ones, you are becoming more angelic when you start to understand the third part.
The Third Brain
We have told you before that there is a mystery going on that involves the Human heart. The Human heart, dear ones, is the third part of the brain. Science has never understood why the heart has such a tremendous magnetic field. It is actually larger than any other organ, including the brain with all of its synaptic activity. The heart overshadows it in so many ways, yet examination of the heart in a corporeal way will give information that is seemingly very ordinary. The heart simply pumps blood in a specific rhythm as sent by signals from the brain. Yet there is far more.
When we started, we gave you instructions to connect the dots, and here is your chance. When a spinal cord is severed in an accident, the heart continues pumping. Brain signals that supposedly control timing and rhythm are disconnected. The signals are gone, yet the heart keeps pumping. Not only that, but digestion continues, liver function continues, pancreas and others continue, even reproduction continues! All without the brain.
There is a third element of consciousness that is centered within the Human heart. You have identified the heart metaphorically as the symbol of love, and you’re right. These three parts to Human consciousness go way beyond the brain as an organ. It’s the trilogy of survival. It’s also represented by the three energy [in numerology] that you see everywhere in spiritual history. It's the three horses that pulled the ascension chariot, the Merkabah of Elijah. It's the trilogy Godhead of many churches [Father, Son, Holy Spirit]. In your body, it's the pineal [creator intuition], the brain [survival] and the heart [compassion].
The masters of this planet had all three working well, but in an older energy, you have not. In an older energy, you were only in survival mode. What is happening is that you are evolving, and the innate of the body is getting stronger. DNA is starting to become more efficient, and these parts are starting to finally connect. Dear ones, what separates a Human Being in survival from a master is intuitive compassion. Compassion is generated from the heart and it’s not a metaphor. It is part of the heart-brain.
There are things going on in this trilogy that you should understand. Connect the dots and start using science to find out and recognize that there are things that are not visible in any spectrum you can yet measure. But simply because you are blind to it at the moment doesn't mean it's not happening. You simply have not discovered everything yet, but the advancement in multidimensional physics will help. Listen, as new physics inventions come to you, you must involve biology, too! Don't separate the two sciences [as they are now]. You will have a far better idea of the truth of all of this when you can quantum-map emotion, thinking and Human behavior. It will show itself immediately.
The brain is responsible for facilitating [coordinating] all three of these parts, but be aware that the other two are doing a great deal of the work. Intuition and compassion will always seem to come directly from the brain, just like to the ancient when the magic came from the box. Connect yourself to a bigger picture, dear ones. The triad of Human consciousness is the beginning of the realization of mastery.
That’s all we want to tell you now. It's something for you to digest into your logic and spirituality, is it not? Think about it and ask your own intuition, "Is it true. Could it be that the Human brain is only a facilitator for something bigger?" This information starts to explain some measurements you never could explain before with conventional biological beliefs. It starts to explain why it is when a Human Being makes certain kinds of decisions, suddenly the brain seems to control the body better. Why is it that corporeal health can suddenly change, heal itself, ask for other kinds of foods, and have biological wisdom? What causes spontaneous remission? Dear ones, unless you were connected, you wouldn’t have any of this. Think: It isn't the brain that gave any of that to you. It was the brain that simply facilitated the connection from that little wire – the Creative Source, the white light.
There have been metaphors given tonight and things for you to examine, which also mean other things. It is the way that we begin the teaching of profound things. We will do it again and again, then elaborate on and on, and talk endlessly about it – all so that you will get it. It’s time you knew the grander picture of the triad, the trilogy of creation inside the Human Being.
I am Kryon, in love with humanity and for good reason.
And so it is.
