Researchers: AIDS virus can hide in bone marrow The virus that causes AIDS can hide in the bone marrow, avoiding drugs and later awakening to cause illness, according to new research that could point the way toward better treatments for the disease. The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The virus that causes AIDS can hide in the bone marrow, avoiding drugs and later awakening to cause illness, according to new research that could point the way toward better treatments for the disease. Dr. Kathleen Collins of the University of Michigan and her colleagues report in this week's edition of the journal Nature Medicine that the HIV virus can infect long-lived bone-marrow cells that eventually convert into blood cells. The virus is dormant in the bone-marrow cells, she said, but when those progenitor cells develop into blood cells, it can be reactivated and cause renewed infection. The virus kills the new blood cells and then moves on to infect other cells, she said. Army: ‘Serious concerns’ about lifting gay ban
WASHINGTON - The Army's top uniformed officer said Tuesday that he has "serious concerns" about overturning a 17-year policy that bans gays from serving openly in the military and supports a yearlong study into the matter before any changes are made. The carefully crafted comments by to the Senate Armed Services Committee indicate reluctance by some within the military's senior ranks to President Barack Obama's plan to repeal "don't ask, don't tell."

GOP State Senator Roy Ashburn Leaves Gay Bar, Gets DUI Author: Dawn Olsen ![]() State Senator Roy Ashburn California State Senator Roy Ashburn was arrested for a DUI after leaving a gay nightclub in Sacramento. To make things extra gay (in a happy way of course) Ashburn had an unidentified male passenger with him during the arrest, a friend I am sure. Ashburn, like all hypocritical GOP closeted-gays, was an ardent opponent of gay marriage in California, and supported the controversial Proposition 8 bill. Ashburn is married and has four children. He was held at the Sacramento County Jail until he posted the $1400 bail. His family must be so proud. Mass screening 'could eradicate AIDS in 40 years' By Staff Writer, PinkNews.co.uk Dr Brian Williams of the South African Centre for Epidemiological Modelling and Analysis said that focus needed to shift to stopping transmission.
