Hi docs, can you tell me if some people are immune to hiv?

Very rare HIV immune: God made everyone differently -and some people are just good at certain things. Oddly enough, about 1 in 100 descendants of European extraction may have a natural resistance to HIV-1 infection. It's rare and I wouldn't count on it-but there are people out there like that. HIV is a very tricky virus though- you have to be very careful these days. Look up CCR5 or C-C chemokine receptor type 5. Cool
