Abstract
The HIV/AIDS is a global pandemic and remains the world’s leading infectious killer. Death of HIV/AIDS patients worldwide is a powerful reminder that there is no cure for HIV/AIDS. However, Anti Retroviral drug treatment can slow down the course of disease and may lead to near normal life expectancy. But HIV drug resistance highlights the need for new and more powerful drugs. Across the globe, researchers are working hard to make an HIV vaccine. Gene editing to prevent HIV is innovative hypothesis to prevent HIV/AIDS which has generated hope to prevent and cure it.
