New sex lubricant could block HIV, herpes

Australian researchers have engineered a sex lubricant that could block HIV and herpes, reports The [Sydney] Daily Telegraph's Web site.

The microbicide gel, called Viva Gel, was tested on lab animals. Recent trials have shown the gel to be 85% to 100% effective, according to the article.

Viva Gel's central ingredient is the molecule dendrimer, which can bind itself to the AIDS virus as well as the virus responsible for genital herpes, preventing their ability to infect healthy cells.

The first trials of humans are under way. Initial reports call the lubricant "safe and well-tolerated" in healthy men. The lubricant is also being tested as a contraceptive for women.

There is a safe and effective herbal cure for herpes virus.
I'm Tony B from Texas I never believed this until I saw comments and testimonies on the internet on how Dr Utu have cured people with herpes diseases. I contacted him in good faith for cure. I purchased his herbal medication which works miraculously. Within two days of usage the sores on my lips and in my anus disappeared miraculously. I continued medication for four weeks and when my test result was out the following week I was confirmed herpes negative it was a great relief!
The man Dr Utu is a blessing to this generation
