At seven o'clock in the evening, the official news suddenly broke into a piece of bombshell news.
"The HIV elimination plan launched by the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention and Sanqing Group has achieved great success."
"After more than three months of implementation, the plan has successfully completed the first and second phases and has now entered the third phase."
"All HIV-infected people across the country have received active treatment during this process, and the HIV virus in their bodies has been eliminated. All parameters are the same as those of normal people, and they are no longer contagious."
"It is gratifying that my country has brought HIV infection under control and has become the first country in the world to eliminate new HIV infections."
"This initial victory proves that we have completely cut off the domestic HIV infection chain and laid a solid foundation for the complete elimination of AIDS in mankind."
"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will maintain long-term supervision of current HIV carriers to ensure that they continue to take medications and maintain a healthy state to consolidate this victory."
"I believe that with the development of science and technology, completely curing AIDS and making it disappear from the world will become a reality in the next few years."
"At the recently concluded Global AIDS Conference, we shared this achievement with friendly people and received congratulations from countries around the world. They will also speed up their pace and take measures to catch up as soon as possible."
"Previously, the world's goal was to completely eliminate AIDS by 2030. China is very likely to achieve this goal ahead of schedule, and even become the first country to achieve this goal."
One stone stirred up huge waves, and everyone, men, women, old and young, was shocked when they heard the news.
This is AIDS, a disease that has frightened countless people for decades and kills without blinking an eye.
Just got it under control?
When people across the country came to their senses, they cheered instantly. They talked about it online and expressed their joy.
"It's great that after all these years, AIDS is finally under control."
"Thanks to Sanqing, which developed drugs that can clear the HIV virus, we were able to achieve success so quickly."
"Facts have proven that with the right drugs, coupled with our country's incredible execution capabilities, all monsters and monsters can be defeated, and even those as terrible as AIDS can surrender."
"Since there are no new cases, we just need to control these infected people and keep them taking medicine."
"I am an illiterate person and can understand it. It means that if the increase is eliminated, when the stock is gone, the disease will be completely over?"
"Hush, this is not a pleasant thing to say. With the rapid development of science and technology, it is possible that all existing viruses will be eliminated in a few years."
"I hope so. I hope there will be no more AIDS in the world and the people will be happy and healthy."
"Haha, let me gloat. Now, AIDS patients abroad are still living in dire straits. When will Sanqing go to rescue them?"
"Of course, the whole world has been clamoring to eradicate AIDS, not just for a day or two, but for decades. As a result, China has come out on top and is at the forefront. Where can they put their faces?"
"With China setting such an example, other countries will definitely follow suit. I heard that Eagle Country has an AIDS terminator plan, which is quite bluffing."
"I'm in Eagle Country. I just got off the plane. I heard that Eagle Country has such a new plan. The Ministry of Health has also allocated a huge sum of money. It is said that the white skin on our street received Sanqing medicine for free, and even came to follow me specially. Show off, haha, it’s really synchronized around the world.”
"Tsk, tsk, Sanqing has made a fortune now!"
"There is no such disease in China. It comes from outside. Isn't it natural for them to pay the bill?"
"I'm still not very optimistic about foreign countries. In so many countries, the rich still have some hope, while the poor countries may have to rely on their own efforts."
"Can't we still rely on alms? In the end, the rich countries will foot the bill, and they will definitely not be happy to pay for it."
"So it's too early to say we're going to eliminate AIDS completely."
“It may be that rich countries eliminate AIDS first, then poor countries, and finally achieve the goal.”
"Whatever they do, as long as China controls them."
"Brother, this is an epidemic disease. Now the whole world is a community. It is impossible for any country or region to be separated from the group and exist alone. In my opinion,
It would be best to bring together the efforts of all countries in the world to eliminate this disease once and for all. "
"The Football League's plan is to eliminate AIDS by 2030. There are still several years to go. Let's work together."
On the Internet, Qiandu’s HIV bar is also in a state of excitement at the moment.
The patients were all sharing their medication and treatment records, and the atmosphere was full of joy, no longer as desolate and hopeless as before.
One of the posts was particularly popular, always floating at the top, and the number of comments grew rapidly.
"Brothers, do you know? Something happened yesterday. I was really happy. I must share it with everyone."
"Everyone knows that our disease is highly contagious. Every time I see a doctor and the doctor hears that I am an HIV carrier, he will show a strange expression. Maybe I am more sensitive. I can notice it every time, but it is not obvious. But it does exist.”
"Yesterday I was injured playing football and I went to a nearby hospital for bandage. This time I told the doctor frankly that I was a carrier and asked him to be careful. But the doctor didn't look at me with disgust at all, and there was nothing strange at all. .”
"He just asked me if I was taking medicine. I said yes. He said that he would be relieved. The disease was under control and was no longer contagious. He asked me not to think too much. "
"Wow, wow, I'm really touched. This is the first time in more than three years since I've been sick that I feel warm and don't feel treated differently."
"Ah, such a gentle and kind-hearted doctor, I fell in love instantly."
Second floor: "Damn the poster, the last sentence is your key point."
Third floor: "Owner, you are so cool. PS, this doctor is really good."
Fourth floor: "The doctor also asked the poster to make sure he was taking medicine, so he was so relieved. I have to say that this medicine really saved us and brought us a glimmer of warmth and hope."
Fifth floor: "This medicine is really amazing. I have taken Bituvit before. Although it was praised as amazing, I have to say that it is still far behind compared to Sanqing. I have been unable to recover after taking it." Yin, I still had chest tightness in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep. As a result, after changing to this medicine, the virus has been cleared, and I can still eat it, just like a normal person."
Sixth floor: "I am an AIDS patient. Because the HIV virus has already taken hold, my immune system has been seriously damaged. After taking this medicine, the virus was quickly eliminated and my immune system was quickly rebuilt. The doctor said that fortunately I am still alive." Young and physically strong.”
Seventh floor: "Brothers, I just confessed to my family, but fortunately, they all read the news and knew something about the disease. Although they scolded me and beat me, they were not cruel."
Eighth floor: "Everyone must have confidence in technology. Ten years ago, this disease would kill people. Who would have thought that it would be today? So, in a few years, sooner or later we will eradicate HIV."
"That's right."
"You're right, we're good now."
"Modern society is really good and changing every day. I feel lucky to live in such a country."
It must be said that the national discussion triggered by this news was intense and long-lasting.
People finally realized that in the face of such a highly dangerous infectious disease, it is not enough to just treat it as an ordinary disease.
Under the increasingly severe situation, political mobilization of the whole society must be implemented.
Everyone has an obligation to contribute to preventing the spread of the disease.
Fortunately, the country had the courage and means to take the right measures decisively and achieved a huge victory.
It can be seen that as long as a suitable elimination model is found and implemented resolutely, humans will eventually be able to defeat any disease.

Sanqing headquarters.
The night fell deep, and as time passed, the lights all over the building were extinguished one by one.
The brightly lit R&D building is like a goddess taking off pieces of bright jewelry on her head, gradually blending into the darkness.
In a room in the corner of the third floor, the light was always on, illuminating a tall figure inside.
Williams can't remember how long he sat in front of his computer.
The only thing he could think of was the virus that filled his mind.
I vaguely remember that I had dinner
After that, I entered the laboratory. When I came out, all the lights in the corridor were turned off.
Then I sat in front of the computer until now.
He stretched out his palm, covered his face, rubbed it vigorously a few times, and massaged the stiff eye muscles.
On the computer, AICell is open, recording the results of the night's work.
In the center of the screen, a colorful hedgehog-like ball appeared there, covered with strange-shaped barbs.
Williams stared at the thorny ball motionlessly, muttering to himself.
"It's really hard to find suitable viruses. Fortunately, Sanqing has powerful gene editing tools that can accurately cut and insert virus genes."
"I edited the genes of several influenza viruses and combined them with gene fragments of several other viruses to create this satisfactory viral vector."
"It can continuously replicate in the human body, attach to human cells, and quickly inject genetic drugs in the body into the cells, thereby achieving the effect of cutting out HIV virus fragments."
"Because the gene fragment has been edited to remove toxicity, it will not cause damage to the human body. Other remaining foreign matter will be quickly cleared by the human body's immune system."
"The infectivity is also greatly reduced and it cannot survive in the external environment. Taken together, it is a perfect gene drug delivery platform."
"Call it a super delivery virus, specially designed for genetic drugs."
"Inject HIV gene drugs into it. After the patient injects the drug, within just a few days, the viral vector will rapidly replicate in the body, deliver the drug throughout the body, and eliminate the HIV virus gene pool."
"After a few days, the patient's immune system will metabolize all remaining foreign matter in the body."
"From beginning to end, the patient feels like he has a mild cold and will recover quickly without any discomfort."
"It is not only applicable to HIV genetic drugs, but also to other genetic drugs. It can be said to be a universal viral vector."
"It's like a powerful, yet very flexible gun that can be loaded with different bullets and used on different enemies."
"With it, the development of genetic drugs will advance rapidly, and we can easily deliver any genetic drugs into human cells."
"Okay, now it's time to go to the laboratory and witness the miraculous moment."
Williams stood up abruptly and walked towards the laboratory with bright eyes.
His body was very tired at the moment, but his brain was extremely excited. He just wanted to implement his carefully designed virus plan in the laboratory immediately.
Time passed by, and a ray of morning sunlight shone into the office.
One after another, people began to appear at the workstation and start working.
The door to Williams' office was open, and no one was inside. Even the computer had gone into sleep mode.
Occasionally, someone passed by and glanced at him, thinking that he hadn't come to work yet.
Gradually, everyone came, but his office was still empty.
At 9:05, Tang Que looked at the empty seats in front of him and couldn't help but frown.
He and Williams had a regular work meeting at nine o'clock. It was already past time, and the other party not only did not show up, but also did not call him to explain.
This really shouldn't be the case, and it doesn't fit in with Williams' usual rigorous work style.
"Did something happen?" Tang Que thought to himself as he walked towards Williams' office.
When I came to the door, there was no ghost inside, and the lights and computer were on.
"It looks like he didn't leave at night. Could it be that he stayed up all night?" Tang Que speculated in his mind, and an idea jumped out of his mind, and he hurried towards the laboratory.
As soon as I walked to the door of the laboratory, I heard a burst of laughter from inside.
"What the hell?" He quickened his pace and rushed in.
I saw William with an unshaven beard, holding a test tube in his hand, dancing around, and making bursts of weird laughter.
There were several people in the laboratory who just came in and before they started working, they were all stunned when they saw this scene.
Tang Que was also shocked by this scene.
He was speechless, and it took him a while to react. He stepped forward and patted Williams carefully on the shoulder.
"Dawei, what are you doing? So happy?"
Williams turned around with a look of surprise and joy on his face: "Boss, I have good news to tell you."
After saying this, he seemed to suddenly remember something and showed a hint of apology.
"Sorry, I just remembered that there is a meeting at nine o'clock. Did I miss something?"
Tang Que saw that his behavior was very normal and didn't look like he was crazy, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly forced out a smile: "Dawei, yes, I didn't see you at the nine o'clock meeting, so I came over to find you, and you are indeed here."
"Oh, oh, my bad." Williams hurriedly packed up the messy experimental bench.
"Boss, just wait for me for a few minutes. I'll be ready soon. Damn it, I actually forgot the time. I didn't expect it was already nine o'clock."
Tang Que asked curiously: "You just said you had good news to tell me? What's going on?"
Williams flipped his hands and the table quickly became tidy and clean.
He grabbed a test tube and came over, his expression becoming a little mysterious.
"Boss, I succeeded. In this test tube is the super delivery virus."
"With it, we can deliver HIV virus genetic drugs, no, any genetic drugs, into the human body."
"What?" Tang Que was shocked. He couldn't help but reach out and take the test tube, facing the light and observing it carefully.
The liquid in the test tube is a pink virus suspension, which looks a bit beautiful.
He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, his expression became intoxicated, as if he was looking at not an ordinary test tube, but a rare tube.
