Why can't we find a cure for HIV?

Unfortunately, antiretroviral therapy is not a cure for HIV. This is due to HIV's ability to hide its instructions inside of cells where drugs cannot reach it. During the HIV life cycle, HIV incorporates itself into its host cell's DNA.

Is there a cure for HIV yes or no?

Currently, there's no cure for HIV / AIDS . Once you have the infection, your body can't get rid of it. However, there are many medications that can control HIV and prevent complications. These medications are called antiretroviral therapy (ART).
