Adam Castillejo, The London Patient, is the 2nd person ever to be cured of HIV via bone marrow transplant. I was fortunate enough to get to sit down and have a chat with him about his story and what it's like to be cured of HIV.

Thank you Raif for bringing your guest Adam to talk with all of us. My partner is HIV positive and I think of him as a gift from the God of Love. He has helped me more than I have helped him in any way. He is a treasure........thanks Raif for your insights and example.......hugs.......Ray
Thanks for watching Ray and our community needs more people like you who show unflinching support and love

Ameen
It will be so.I have faith🙏🏿.
I'm a long term survivor of HIV/AIDs. Diagnosed in 2009 and I'm still here!!!
That's great to hear, stay strong!
how were you able to stay healthy for that long?
Do you have AIDs from 2009 or HIV?
Wow 14 years good luck 🤞 🍀 🍀🍀
Thank you. @@FlavioMarceloSousa35
By chance, my partner and I are both positive. I'm also in remission from cancer. I'm very grateful to have effective medication available today. My partner is currently out of the country for the next few months and I miss him terribly. I thought I would always be single because of hiv but there are ppl out there with an open mind who are also educated on hiv.
Thank you for sharing your inspiring story, hope this gives others hope too!
so awesome that we are making strides with finding a cure for HIV. loved this interview.
Hi Raif, This was a wonderful conversation with your guest Adam. I would like see a cure not just treatment. I was crying on and off through out the interview because I knew people in my 20's and early 30's in the 1990's and early 2000's who had HIV and or AIDS and did not understand at the time how difficult it was physically and the stigma and discrimination people went through. It didn't have much knowledge about it at the time. I was tested regularly when I was younger and was terrified at the time as I didn't know much about it at the time and coming out at that time in anyway was difficult. Alot has changed in some ways over the last say 20 to 30 years and certainly in the last 40 years. ❤️
I love this channel. Very informative ❤
I'm really happy for Adam, God willing we will be next! :)
So much positivity. Love you guys. Spread happiness and positivity
Seeing him be so happy gives me such hope. I feel such joy to see this be a possibility.
Raif ,just listened to the interview, thank you you let the person talk and say what they want to get across, so many people interrupt. Always learn something ,your doing a great job ! Thank you again
Phew! Okay thanks Dennis, that was my goal...to chat about things he might not normally get to chat about.
Excellent interview Raif, keep up the amazing work you do, God bless you.
Thank you John, I will do my best to keep making better content!
When are we going to have a cure? The world needs one, I think that 41 years is enough time for develop a functional cure and a preventive vaccine.
Thank u Adam & Raif! ❤
You’re very welcome my friend
Hope for the best..... Our scientists are working hard. Definetly we will have cure
Agreed!
I was just diagnosed earlier this month. I appreciate your channel.
Hey I’m so glad you found it 🙏🏽 sending you lots of love
my prayers go to you 🙏🏽
Hi Raif...it's been so long since I have said hello! It's good to see you again. A lot has happened for me - my mom died last holiday season - I had taken care of her for many years. I got Covid and was sick for a time. But...I won't bore you with all of that. The good news is that I have gained a friend who has become very, very dear to me. I thank God for him all the time. We have the most amazing conversations, and I don't feel so alone. i wish everyone could have someone like that in their life. Thanks for all you do to help others.
Hi my friend!! It's good to hear from you ❤ I'm so sorry to hear about your mom! She was very fortunate to have a son like you taking care of her all that time. I recently had COVID as well back in August and felt the strong effects of long COVID for a good 10 weeks. It was quite the struggle but I"m glad to be feeling back to my normal self mostly. Now that I'm back I'm pushing for more content again so I hope we can connect more in the coming months! I'm so SO happy to hear about your friend; having that kind of connection is so powerful and I hope it propels you into a much more vibrant, happy sense of self moving forward
Great interview
Thanks Elijah!
Hi my name is Nelly I need help of this pandamic can get a cure pls

You are very welcome. Thanks for tuning in
I wished it would be 2 hours, definitely best video ever
Thank you Lee! Definitely noticed to do more interviews like this 😉
Your videos have helped me accept my own diagnose and I'm ready to start treatment in 2 weeks. Thank you so much Raif, keep up the good work of educating everyone!
Amazing!
Raif - you continually impress me. I hope you pursue some sort of journalistic career. You have a future as a talking head!!
Coming from you that means a lot! Thank you my friend; I’m always aware of your feedback 😌🙏🏽
@@RaifDerrazi We belong to a mutual admiration society.
Loved this episode 😍 I got to know about my status 6 months ago and your videos helped me learn a lot on how to cope up with the big reality of my life.I am based in India and on medication from AHF.Thanks Raif 🙂
Amazing, thanks for sharing. I’m so glad it helped and that you are enjoying the content! 😍🙏🏽 much much much more to come, just getting started in this next chapter of my channel. I’m SO excited for what’s to come
More strength to you ❤️
@Prajjwal Pandey are you healthy now
bro i am from india am thinking of suicide cant tell anyone wt to do plz help
@@harman7522please do not keep it to yourself it will a big time hurt to yourself... Please talk to someone whom you trust and start taking medication... Kindly don't ignore your health
I'm also ALHIV I was diagnosed in June 2021 at the age of 17. I hope a cure will be found soonest. thanks Raif
I was 19 and its been over 20 years. Do not for any reason give up on your hopes and dreams in life. I didn't do many things that I should have done because back then I didn't know I'd live a normal life.
@@ryanb9930 I'm at india wanna do so much but hiv stops me
@@ryanb9930 hey how are you now how's life?
I remember the time when the Drs waited until your immune system was depleted to nearly beyond repair until they started you on ARV. Luckily I went to one of the top Hospitals in the country and they didnt use that treatment regime.
I have heard about the growing Latin American communities in the UK. Nice to hear someone speak from one of those areas.
🎉woohoo!!!
how YOU doin?
@@RaifDerrazi good
Hope for people living with hiv
Thanks for sharing this. Love this interview..... I've been living with HIV now just over 22 years and the thought of a possible cure to me actually... honestly I don't know how i feel about that any more.... is that weird? HIV was what forced me to grow up and be human again... start taking care of myself, eat well. exercise... go back to university etc.... so from that perspective it is kind of a positive (no pun intended) part of me... but it would be awesome not to have to take the meds and of course what it would mean for others of course would be amazing..
Always have Pray the Rosary
Please I would like to know if you have a primary care doctor and an infectious disease doctor or just one please 🙏 this is very important for me 😢
That was fng amazing
I humbly request well-wishers to help me with bone and muscles pains treatment. I face lots of challenges like stigma I can't walk around easily no job cause of lots of challenges i have poor diet i now can see hell falling on me.
🙏🏿❤️
I just know this channel, what have u done through this channel help so much people with this problem.. i kind a wanna DM you about the HiV + Hepatitis
May be you can help me
I wished undectable could get my career back
I really appreciate you making this video. My ex of 4 years cheated and gave me HIV during our relationship and I was devastated. You've made me feel so much better and seeing all these people share their stories Dr ikoni !!
Be strong and never give up on yourself because you are innocent and only the good lord knows your heart..
I m very cautious as to see if this is "cured' would like to know more about this as I was diagnosed a year ago .took me 6 months to become undetectable.
It’s a cure but not one that is good for most everyone
This is scary the risk of cancer and other stuff 😱😭
That’s one way to look at it. But it’s better to know and be able to take action to prevent or reduce the risk!
@@RaifDerrazi how to . While the cause is the arv itself . We have no knowledge about it nore the doctors explain very well
@@PhOne-qy9io the causes we’re talking about are from HIV. Regardless, eating healthy, being physically active, getting sleep, hydrating, reducing stress all help your body fight disease
@@RaifDerrazi i know about the hiv . But as far as i understand from everything around the arv has side effects. Like i'm 25 y/o and started treatment in 6 years and i'm experiencing osteoporosis like bro . That surly makes an effect on my mental health . I keep wondering what can arv causes and what are the good options with less side effects. And that knowing that i had hiv since i was a kid and didn't know about it for almost more than 7 years so i started the treatment late . It's lot of stuff that makes me lost
how does it feel knowing hes cured and you aren't , that doesn't mess with you ? (im sure you are happy for him but wtf did it fix his other health issues? Is he immune ?)
Got any support group?
What treatment are you taking Raif ? You look like you gained some weight in a good way
Kab tak hoga cure
Please I have herpes and I need help please 🙏
Got a positive test a month ago I’m still struggling I been on treatment a whole month I want to be undetectable and safe I just want to feel normal again
so after he recovers from hiv does he become immune too?? or he could get hiv virus again??
he can not be re-infected
3x more likely to get cancer? Yikes! Ive had cancer already and i dont want it again. It was very painful.
Praise Jesus, hallelujah
Thank you science
Gratitude to you Dr Gboya on KZhead may God continue to bless the work of your hand as you continue helping people............
Still scary even though now they have meds that make it undetectable. How was he cured and your not ??still though it was incurable?
The long haul? The drugs? The stigma!
@ 25:53 the Dog farts 😅 Best part of the interview . Thank me later people of aids
Hey bro, how have you been these days and are you alright and i have some sort of questions to be clarified because im having symptoms and im afraid and im 17 i had my tattoo and now symptoms are showing up 🙂
Just go get tested at plan parenthood or the health department
Please make a video about hiv and poppers
What specifically would you like to know about hiv and poppers?
@@RaifDerrazi Is it dangerous if we use poppers when we are on arv treatment?
@@RaifDerrazi is that true Raif ?
@@utututututututu yes there’s a guy who died doing it
@@stevesalvant80 reaallyyyy?!
Hi sir
Can other living with HIV get cured? And how can they get it?
I've only heard of one other person being cured, Timothy Brown The Berlin Patient. He had cancer that his Dr treated with stem cells from a doner that is immune to HIV from a mutation. It cured his HIV infection😊 That was years ago so hopefully by now a less expensive and more accessible treatment is on the horizon.
plss pls i need your help
What is this treatment called
I'm not sure if it has a specific name, but it is a bone marrow transplant (with the primary purpose of treating cancer in the blood)
This treatment leads high risk of dead into the operation. But is a hopefully way to think about a cure.
Prevention is the best way to prevent the viruses from spreading stop having sex men with men
How this guy walks with balls that size?!
No more gay jokes please
@goaheadtagmeIknowyoumadbitch It's not a gay joke, it's admiration to the guy's courage. But it takes sense of humor to understand it, you moon faces thief of joy.
If he has unprotected sex, with someone who has HIV but no medication, can he get HIV again? Also, if someone with undetectable, but not cured HIV, has unprotected sex with someone who is HIV positive without medication. Can that person change into detectable HIV?
Unless the positive person with no medication goes on to viral load detectable. Otherwise, no chance of transmission. U equals U.
Transplant bone marrow T cells is not a normal T cell,,,hiv can survive in that T cells ..he can’t have hiv even if he have sex. With hiv patient who is detectable…
No, he can’t get HIV because he has hiv-resistant blood from his hiv-resistant donor.
I don’t think he would be able to catch HIV again due to the stem cell transplant. He’ll likely be naturally resistant. And yes, if someone undetectable has sex with someone with detectable HIV they may be able to catch new mutations in theory, but it would be very unlikely as the ARVs would protect them.
We just want to say a big thank you to the great Dr kanayo Peterson you are a precious, precious gift to humanity with your 14days negative doing wonderful things in our community, everyone is so pleased with your healing herbal medicine
Why cannot you request cells from Adam and do bone marrow for positive person? So that it can cure that person also right? Sorry if I am wrong.

Hii
Cured ?
Yes
OK THICK BODY
BS, he ain't... Still too early to say
You are such a delightful and a dedicated traditional doctor Emuakhe on KZhead.you are truly an inspiration,I cannot thank you much enough for introducing your herbs that completely cure my HIV completely
Did you both ever inform that become a gay have high risk for HIV? Because actually normal sex interaction (male and female ) not caused HIV.
It looks like your information is coming from some kind of religious organisation.... Far more heterosexuals are affected by the HIV Pandemic, in between the 38 million worldwide, than gay men. I can't believe people like you are watching this channel, I least, can't follow the purpose!!! At least you could tell us the reason of being here
Fake
Please stop lying please
