A member asked:
Can you still get infected with hiv if someone is a delta 32 carrier?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If you have one: Copy of the mutation in the ccr5 gene, you can get infected but the disease does not progress as easily. If you have two copies, you can't be infected. By one or two copies, i mean we each have 2 copies of the nonsex chromosomes.
