Haven't Found Anything to Prove Me Wrong Yet, So...

Hello,

this is probably way off, but i'll ask anyways:

is it possible for white blood cells - either taken from the bone marrow from the person before he got hiv/aids, or from a close family member (parents for example) - to cure hiv/aids if injected back into the bone marrow? If not (which likely is the case), why not?

Also, would it work if it was white blood cells and stem cells/just stem cells? Same as before, why not if that's the likely case?

Has this even been tried/experimented with in the past?

I know for a fact that this does not work. The virus can not be flushed out. It has been tried.
