No problem.. Sometimes if I see incorrect information floating around on a topic, especially if the topic becomes part of the discussion, I will post items on it. The person on iHub claiming this method is the current solution and will quickly replace the current standard of care in HIV has no idea what they are talking because of all the risks, complications, and many failures trying to replicated the first case.
Also with CRISPR, did you see this article I posted over the weekend taking about issue found with two published studies last week? Lots of issues to fix there before becoming a viable solution.

CRISPR base editing, known for precision, hits a snag with off-target mutations
In two studies published on Thursday, one in mice embryos and one in rice plants, scientists find that this “base editing,” a form of CRISPR invented in 2016, can cause hundreds of unintended mutations, potentially making its clinical use a genetic crapshoot.
