There is NO cure for aids. Eventually he will die and what is to keep the Hep C from ravaging the new liver?

The article does not say aids - it say HIV.

HIV and Aids are one and the same, one stems from the other.

To say that they aren't is ignoring the facts and perpetuating a lie.

Cancer is cancer, they could have done the same thing the aids activists did and called what happens to the body as a result "cancer related illnesses" but it still wouldn't change the fact that the cancer killed you.
You get HIV and the results of the HIV is the destruction of the immune system and a subsequent breakdown. Calling the process by which the HIV virus kills the body by another name doesn't change the fact that contracting the HIV virus caused the breakdown.

The article does not say aids - it say HIV.

A distinction without a difference. The only time I am aware of that having the infectious organism isn't considered a disease. If you are infected with Hepatitis B virus, you have Hepatitis B even if assymptomatic. If you have Plasmodium Falciparum in your RBC's or liver you have Malaria, even if you have no crisis. This HIV AIDS distinction is a political legacy of the early days when we did not have an organism and diagnosis was based of clinical findings. It's medically meaningless now.
