Quite right MagiK, quite right. So far no viral disease have a cure (if you don't count the human immune system of course). The most successful "cure" for a virus would be shingles, herpes zoster (the same virus that causes chicken pox). IIRC we can "cure" people from this dormant virus. I bet Attalus has more information about this. [img]smile.gif[/img]
