What ever happened to that doctor who infected himself with Charlie Sheen's HIV?

Wasn't he supposedly curing HIV?

Wow... I have no idea what to even say about that doctor. Who in their right mind does that??

The article in the original post seems to be based in actual science and seem to be cautiously optimistic. No arthritic goats milk in sight. :)

He injected himself, so I can't question his conviction. I watched him intent himself on TV, and Charlie was clearly shocked. Could have been faked though. Who knows.

I'd need a second and third opinion before I went with the arthritic goats milk option.
There's many more questions down that path, than answers. For example; how exactly did he diagnose the goats with arthritis? I dunno.
