Will there be a permanent cure for AIDS in our lifetime?

[Person66]

As someone from the medical community I do not expect to see a cure in my lifetime because:
A) HIV/AIDS is no longer considered a terminal illness, it's now officially a chronic condition, meaning that with the "new" drugs it can be managed for a lifetime. This decreases interest in finding a cure from everyone. These drugs give a woman with AIDS a 99% chance of not passing it on to her baby and you can take them and have unsafe sex with an HIV+ person and only have a 1% chance of getting infected.
B) it is extremely hard to find a cure for any virus, think of the common cold, they are always evolving, can you think of a cure for any virus?
C) the pharmaceutical companies are making so much money from anti-virals they have no interest in a cure
- the best we can hope for is new and better drugs with less side-effects like Viread
