Egyptian army’s claim to have found AIDS cure draws ridicule

Field Marshal Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi's camp "has been dealt a deep moral defeat," said one well-known Egyptian writer after the army claimed to have found a cure for AIDS.

Cairo, Egypt's military leaders are facing ridicule after the chief army engineer said that they had a "miraculous" set of devices that can detect, cure AIDS, hepatitis and or viruses. The claim of this was dismissed by experts who called it "shocking to scientists" by the presidents science adviser. This has struck a blow to Egypt's well managed image. 

Saying that you have to cure to AIDS and not having anything to back it up is truly insulting to the people who have it. Many people have been diagnosed with AIDS and are eager to get ride of it. Giving people false hope is very is dishonourable. People with AIDS suffer terribly.
