A member asked:

Can we find cures for hiv one day?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

This is a public information site where volunteer doctors answer questions about specific health conditions. We are not in the fortune-telling business. I'm sure there will be cures for just about everything eventually, but I would not hazard a guess as to when for any specific disease, much less one as complicated as HIV.

We can hope. The current treatments control the disease well enough that a properly treated person can expect to live a normal life span.
