is creating a mutation of HIV effectively creating the possibility of another strain of a super virus?
It's a game of tennis between science and nature. Science is prone to disruption (war, economics, etc.) where nature is perfect, never takes a day off, and it will capitalize on science's shortcomings. Even if one of those shortcomings is a scientific platform based on good intention.
So yes the possibility is real but that's not what I was refering to in my post concerning Atripla.
