Basketball legend Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Jr. announced he had HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, back in 1991 and he has lived what appears to be a normal, healthy life ever since.
Magic, who was spotted dining with his wife and kids at BOA steakhouse in Hollywood over the weekend (June 4, 2011), has long been an advocate for HIV and AIDS, striving to educate people about a disease that was once considered an automatic death sentence.
It has long been discussed that Magic was “cured” of the disease and many assumed that Magic’s access to ‘the best doctors money can buy’ saved his life and was the key factor preventing his HIV infection from progressing to AIDS.
This week marks 30 years since HIV was discovered. In that time, 30 million people have died from the disease, and it continues to spread at the rate of 7,000 people per day globally.
Johnson has been living with HIV for over 20 years.
To combat the virus, he’s reportedly turned to alternative treatments to boost his immune system, and while many believe he’s HIV free, Magic’s doctors confirmed years ago that although it’s virtually undetectable in his bloodstream, he still carries the HIV virus
I wrote all that to say that now it’s being reported worldwide that “the first man ever” has been miraculously cured of HIV and surprisingly enough, it’s NOT Magic Johnson…
Meet 45 year old Timothy Ray Brown of San Francisco, California.
According to several online reports, Brown is “the only man ever known to have been apparently cured from AIDS”.
Timothy Ray Brown tested positive for HIV back in 1995, but has now entered scientific journals as the first man in world history to have that HIV virus completely eliminated from his body in what doctors call a “functional cure.”
Brown already suffered from both leukemia and HIV when he received a bone marrow stem cell transplant in Berlin, Germany in 2007. The transplant came from a man who was immune to HIV, which scientists say about 1 percent of Caucasians are.
Doctors monitored his progress and were shocked when tests revealed no signs of the virus:
“He has no replicating virus and he isn’t taking any medication. And he will now probably never have any problems with HIV,” his doctor Gero Huetter told Reuters.
Brown now lives in the Bay Area, and suffers from some mild neurological difficulties after the operation. “It makes me very happy,” he says of the incredible cure.
The unusual blood transplant they tried has made Brown the first person in the world allegedly “cured” of AIDS [insert side-eye]. Brown speaks about being cured in the following video:

Hmmmmm…..
Yes, I believe them. It has been proven that many descendants of the Bubonic Plague survivors are immune to HIV. This was proven during a study during the 80s in San Francisco when a lot of gay men were contracting HIV. It was noted that there were some men who were seemingly immune to it. After genetic testing and tons of research, it was discovered that the same antibodies that immune Bubonic Plague survivors possessed.
If he received a bone marrow transplant from someone with those antibodies, his body would take on that immunity as well.
I’m sure they BEEN had a ‘cure’….
THEY AIN’T NEVA GONNA CURE AIDS CUZ THERE’S NO MONEY N THE CURE,THE MONEY IS N THE MEDICINE.
Now ain’t this some bullsh**….Dr.Sebi (a black man) has been curing hiv & aids for years!!!!! And every other dis-ease you can think of…now this (white) doctor wants the credit…again bullsh**!
Michelle you just raised your profile 100 points with this story! Kudos!
Ummm…excuse me has anyone heard of Dwayne Woods?!
Has anyone ever heard of Dr.Sebi?? The Herbalogist from Honduras who has been "curing" AIDS for decades?? Who defeated NY Supreme Court in the late 80’s to prove to the World He has cured AIDS?? Who continues to travel around the world curing people of all illnesses with the application of Herbal remedies and not those chemical cocktails that are really killing people?? Ask Magic Johnson about Dr Sebi he knows all too well..
Wow this is fascinating! NOt this white dude (although Im happy for him) but the comments about Dr. Sebi and Dwayne Woods. I have to google them.
I’d also heard that the medical staff of Howard University had developed a cure. Personally, I think HIV is a man made virus and anything man does can be undone. Also, I never thought Magic had HIV or AIDS. I think it was all a publicity stunt to get the general public and the government to cough up more financial aid to the people who invented the virus in the first place. Two foul things people do: 1) they start wars to make money and 2) they create diseases to make money. When people are fearful and vulnerable…they will spend money and make it rain.
Dr. Gary R. Davis invented the goat serum that cured a little girl in the u.s. so she is actually the first cured person in America and I do believe Magic doesn’t have it anymore…
HIV/AIDS is nothing but an attack on your immune system, get your immune system up and it will fight off the virus…
I have hiv your noledge about hiv/aids is not right
athe only HIV-infected man who may have gotten rid of his disease through a bone marrow transplant. But the procedures he went through do not represent a cure for all HIV/AIDS patients, as they are risky and not proven to work in everyone. Also, the disease could still be lurking the patient’s body, doctors say.
The news about Timothy Ray Brown, a 44-year-old American living in Berlin, first surfaced in 2008, when his doctors reported about his case. Here’s what happened with Brown, who is HIV positive and broke his silence in a recent article with the German magazine Stern . He is battling a cancer called acute myeloid leukemia. Doctors first treated him high-dose chemotherapy, but when that failed, turned to a bone marrow transplant (which contains stem cells) in 2007.
Brown’s oncologist decided to look for a bone marrow donor who had a had a special genetic mutation that made the stem cells in it naturally resistant to HIV infection. His physician, Dr. Gero Huetter, was able to find this rare match and Brown got the bone marrow transplant. He needed a second stem cell transplant because the cancer came back.
Today, he appears to be cancer free and doctors can’t find traces of the virus that causes AIDS either.
This fascinating scientific advance is by no means a cure for the more than 33 million people living with HIV worldwide. As CNN’s Miriam Falco reported in 2008:
1. Even though their tests do not show a presence of HIV in his system, doesn’t mean it’s not there. This virus is known for hiding well and popping up later. It’s been seen before in patients taking anti-retroviral drugs. It is possible that if more sophisticated tests were used on this patient, they would detect the virus that is still in his body. So it’s still not entirely clear that he is HIV-free.
2. The chances of finding a bone marrow donor with two copies of this genetic mutation for every one of the 33 million people worldwide living with HIV or AIDS is not realistic because only one percent of Caucasians and zero percent of African Americans or Asians have this particular genetic mutation.
3. Bone marrow transplants are dangerous for patients. Before they can get the donated stem cells that will replace their own, they have to take strong chemotherapy to destroy their own bone marrow – leaving them without an immune system to fight off any disease – until the transplanted bone marrow can make new blood cells. Plus patients run the risk of rejecting the new cells, which means they have to take immune-suppressing drugs for the rest of their life.
4. Bone marrow transplants are very expensive and not an option for many people living with this disease around the world. The only way to get the treatment it to have both hiv and lucimia. No matter what how much money you have. If you wish to try to proof me wrong please do so….
Don’t mind this God forsakin Americans dat alters God creation by crossbreedin and so called scientific experiment dat has brought all dis incurable diseases like Hiv and chagas disease to mankind. Anyway,there is a cure for Hiv. The cure is purple lapacho tree,cassava leaf, bitter leaf, water leaf and bamboo leaf. But as for chagas disease, i don’t knw d cure. Finally, d secret things belong to God and dat which is revealed belongs to us. In ”YAHWEH JEHOVAH” i trust.
Thanks for sharing this information. Could you please explain how to combine this products? You help is really needed. Do I need to boil them together or there is a particular procedure and diet to follow. Thanks.
Not bitter leaf but bitter kola leaf. In Yahweh i trust.
D cure to hiv is d bark of purple lapacho (tecoma impetigonisa), cassava leaf, bitter kola leaf, bamboo leaf and water leaf. OR Bee sting/venom.
@ Emmanuel. Thanks for sharing this information. Could you please explain how to combine this products? You help is really needed. Do I need to boil them together or there is a particular procedure and diet to follow. Thanks.
