Doctors use HIV virus to fight cancer cells

I found this to be very interesting and intriguing.

Not exactly sure what to think of the video, but the explanation here makes sense:

Related.

 

Yeah, that's why I titled the thread the way I did. They used the virus to genetically engineer cells to fight the cancer. The video and the source site are a bit misleading but the content of the video itself pretty clearly clarifies what they actually did.

 

So now the kid has HIV after doctor puts an HIV virus into her?

 

Watch the video. It states that the virus was modified as to not actually cause disease.
