We know that HIV is a killer disease but what happens when a cancer
patient is injected with HIV virus and he gets better?. This is what a
man called Marshall Jensen, who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic
leukemia experienced lately.
Currently, it is a trial experiment and it involves implanting white
blood cells with deactivated HIV and injecting them back in the body to
fight off cancer‘They were a young couple. They weren’t married
very long. They had a brand new little baby when all of this started,’
neighbor Lindsay Wright said.
‘We were calling it our Hail Mary pass,’ Marshall Jensen said. ‘It
felt right. … We didn’t know how we were going to get out there, what we
were going to do, but it worked. By God’s grace I was able to come
back.’
On Thursday, a healthier Jensen returned to his neighborhood in Utah to a surprise homecoming celebration.
‘It’s a disabled virus, but it retains the one essential feature of
HIV, which is the ability to insert new genes into cells,’ Dr June
explained.
