I have zero ... ZERO faith in the entire medical industry anymore. None.

I saw a commercial for something that masks the HIV Virus in tests ... and they then state that a negative test result = you don't have HIV and state that you can live your life freely.

What I don't get is what happens if you stop taking that medication? Does the HIV come back? According to the test, the patient was HIV Negative, but became positive again after stopping the medication? How aren't they not considered HIV positive despite being on the medication? I mean, fuck, in baseball, your career is basically marred forever if you test positive to steroids anymore ... they used to avoid detection using masking agents that are highly illegal ... isn't masking your true HIV status just as bad if not worse???

I mean, I get that their "research" (heh heh) probably shows that "the probability of transmission decreases to some infinitely small percentage that it may as well be zero" or some other packaging. That whole ad was frigging disgusting too.
