"Mississippi Baby" Shows Detectable Levels of HIV
According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the child known as the "Mississippi Baby" - an infant seemingly cured of HIV that was reported as a case study of a prolonged remission of HIV infection in The New England Journal of Medicine last fall—now has detectable levels of HIV. This is after more than two years of not taking antiretroviral therapy with no evidence of virus, according to the pediatric HIV specialist and researchers involved in the case.
