HIV destroys the immune system from within. Despite decades of research, there still isn’t a vaccine against the virus. The shape-shifting pathogen rapidly adapts to vaccines and renders them useless.

Scientists in Japan have discovered a genetic "silencer" within the HTLV-1 virus that helps it stay hidden in the body, evading the immune system for decades. This silencer element essentially turns ...
