from Jules: is there really such a thing as elite controllers? They appear to be at risk for ongoing activation, inflammation, just like everyone else, and further at greater risk for comorbidities just like other HIV+s, and perhaps accelerated aging or accentuated aging. So should so called elite controllers be treated with HAART just like everyone else????
