        No they cannot..HIV is a disease that needs to be studied in a cellular level not just a mere hunch..unless if they’re going to collaborate with the modern way of medicine, is very hard.

        Can they? Have you forgotten the young innocent young ladies people have raped and infected because the witch doctors said sleeping with them will cure HIV? Please, world. Be kind to the young and innocent. Don’t encourage ideas that aren’t working!

        Trust even in "talking therapy" is paramount. This approach is in Modish Churches today.
